Design files for my keyboards

This repo captures the design files associated with my custom keyboards.

These keyboards are primarily focused on Steno input, mainly using Plover. In the spirit of open steno, I have made these designs open. Anyone is free to make designs based on these keyboards, for non-commercial purposes. I am releasing the designs under the CC BY-NC 3.0 license. Specifically, this means if you wish to sell a product based on the design, you should talk to me.
