From the project

I am going to make a "magic" keyboard. Thin profile and etc

- A custom low-profile wireless mechanical keyboard designed from scratch to match the coolness of the Apple Magic Keyboard while teaching me PCB design, firmware development, and CAD. I know it looks pretty simple, but it took me a long time to make it and I'm pretty proud of it

This keyboard is a mechanical and wireless built with the Nice!Nano V2 microcontroller and will use ZMK firmware. My idea was to create a minimal keyboard that matches my dad's MacBook Pro which I occasionally use.
