"Xteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Prototype V1

Update logs:
- To do:
  (Prototype V2)
- 04/01/2025: Nothing to see here for now...



Introduction
Did you purchased a macro expansion kit or a novelties out of FOMO with your basekit? Is it still laying around with no use?
Are you looking forward to displaying your artisans! but you want to use them?
Do you need a fast access to your function keys! but you 65% (or lower) enthusiast?
Do you always suffer from your XT macro layout keyboard and always asking for "Help?"
Well, if you like some "Help?" or not let me show my triangle.

Introducing Xteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

A modern solution to end my & your sufferings.


Inspiration
One day I asked myself hmm maybe I will design a macro pad, and I ended up designing Xteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! at first the project was just for fun and to test new MCUs and other fun stuff which might come in the future.
 I did not believe it will even reach a prototype phase... Anyway



Design


I designed Xteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! to be as human friendly as possible, and when I was looking at the project a whole. I wanted to add a tent on the top for no reason or whatever. I have tested the aerodynamic by myself I did not! and while there is no meaning behind the test I made I just wanted to add extra text here. Due to having 2 pcbs I wanted to include a UDB because I wanted to. As for Geon feet the current meta is to hide the screws hence we are going screwless baby.
PCB is designed by me :blank:. if you are interested, please find the details below or join my discord.
