Hey everyone, I want to design my own board, basically just like the Ergodox but with more buttons and a closer thumb cluster.
I've been looking over the Ergodox design in KiCad and I've got some (hopefully not so stupid) questions.
The first one is what is this star pattern and is it necessary?:
Here's another photo of it
My other question is that is it possible to add more buttons to the Ergodox? Would I have to reprogram the firmware myself? (my coding is pleb tier).
Lastly, do you have any control over how the back of the circuit board looks in KiCad?? If not then how is it that the left hand side of the Ergodox is produced from the one .kicad_pcb file which only contains the right hand?
Thank's for reading my thread.
Cheers
