Hello from Vienna
« on: Sun, 08 December 2019, 05:17:07 »
Hi I'm zwarag!

A friend and I recently talked about what keyboard would fit us. We both do a lot of programming and so we thought it might be fun to look across amazon for some keebs.
After a while we came to the conclusion that non of the currently offered keyboards really fit us very well.

I currently use a Magic-Keyboard form Apple but since I switched work, I now use Linux much more often and there I use the keyboard of a Dell XPS 13.
A smaller form factor keyboard is really fitting my style, it does not have to be low profile but I only rarely need page up/down and really never would use the numpad.

After some digging I found r/mk and /customkeyboards and now I'm ready to getting into building my own keeb.

One real struggle I'm having right now is that since I'm austrian, I would really like to have an "ISO" enter Key (the tall one like on german or uk keyboards). But I don't understand what I should look for when looking at PCBs.

Best regards,
Harrys
