So I'm going to put a few hints bellow in spoilers so people can google a bit if they are interested.
#1 More
Its for a constructed language I didn't make
#2 More
It was inspired by the papua new ginea pigdin
#3 More
Only the letters in black are used by this conlang, the others are for Qwerty's sake
#4 More
It's considered one of the smallest usable conlangs

So the answer is toki pona (wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toki_Pona), lessons (http://rowa.giso.de/languages/toki-pona/english/lessons.php)).
It's a constructed language that aims to be minimalistic (120 words).
It only uses lower case:
- consonants: k, l, m, n, p, s, t, w and j (pronounced y-)
- vowels: a, e, i, o, u pronounced as in spanish/italian
- a few punctuation marks
My goal here was to make a keyboard with all it needs on the main layer,
and whats is missing for qwerty on other layers.
I made a frequency analysis of a translated text (Song of songs (http://failbluedot.com/toki_pona/song_of_songs)) to place the characters.
But I'm new to that, so the results aren't perfect...
That's all folks!

It's for use with just a left hand and the firmware is a nightmare, but there's surely more to it...

Nope its a two hander and its imaginary, so no firmware problem ;)

I'm sure there is a space left for a macro, if you really want it ! ;D

No, that is an unforseen bonus, thanks for loosing a few neurones :p

Is it a Welsh keyboard? 8)

There are some weird non-standard symbols here...
Left and right arrow in the top/left corner. What does it mean? "Swap"? Swap what?
On the arrow keys in another layer, Up and Down produce Page Up and Page Down, but Right and Left produce Tab and Back-Tab respectively.

;)
I'm not an expert in 'standard' symbols.
When you make a layout http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com (http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com), if you open :
Character Picker > Keyboard-Layout-Editor Icons, you get a nice list of standard-ish icons.
Some don't look that standard to me or you but they are the best I found in the list.
The Left/right arrow in the top left is one of the tab symbols, though there is another one the is better.
The things you thought were Tab and back-tab are respectively Line-End and Line-Start...
I agree this isn't always straight forward...
But sometimes I like to have no text, only symbols.
PS : In case its not clear there are four layers 0, 1, 2 and 3. The 0 layer is by default for instance '?' on the top left blue key.
The bottom left arrow shifts to layer 1 giving '(', the second arrow right shifts to layer 2 '[', and both together to layer 3 '{'.
For the 'e' key we get 'e', 'E', 'f', 'F'.
The green keyboard key is for commands (remapping Ctrl-Alt-Win and Fn standard actions - but not Alt + digits).
Ctrl-Alt-Del is remapped to Alt Gr-Enter
The warning triangle in the top right corner is for , because there is no way to have that on this keyboard, its

Answer and design process :

So the answer is toki pona (wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toki_Pona), lessons (http://rowa.giso.de/languages/toki-pona/english/lessons.php)).
It's a constructed language that aims to be minimalistic (120 words).
It only uses lower case:
- consonants: k, l, m, n, p, s, t, w and j (pronounced y-)
- vowels: a, e, i, o, u pronounced as in spanish/italian
- a few punctuation marks
My goal here was to make a keyboard with all it needs on the main layer,
and whats is missing for qwerty on other layers.
I made a frequency analysis of a translated text (Song of songs (http://failbluedot.com/toki_pona/song_of_songs)) to place the characters.
But I'm new to that, so the results aren't perfect...
That's all folks!

As this is keyboard-related, it's not really off topic, is it? Does that mean it's off off topic? If so, don't the two "offs" cancel each other out, leaving just "topic"? Obvious it's a topic—so, okay then, what's the problem? Beats me.
