I had 3 goals when making this keyboard.
1. I wanted a split keyboard, but I didn't want to have to relearn how to type.
The thumb clusters on the ergodox or the layout of the keyboardio would have a learning curve that would require some muscle memory and it would be frustrating if I had to work on a laptop or someone else's keyboard.
2. I wanted a keyboard that could be split and used individually. An Fn key on the thumb cluster could mirror the other half, so anyone with use of one hand could type relatively normally.
3. I wanted to be able to find keycaps semi easily.
The full keyboard has 70 keys, and can be filled with 1u keys from a 104 key set caps.
The numpad/arrow/function keys of a full keycap set can be used on the thumb keys and modifiers of this keyboard.
I liked the overall design of the ergodox, but I didn't like the thumb cluster,
and I liked the keyboardio, but I didn't like the layout of the outer and inner most columns.
