Ferris Sweep number 2 finished yesterday. Now I’m fooling around with the BEAKL 15 keyboard layout. Again. 🙄

@bsag Wow. I don't think I could use one of those, but it just looks so clean and cool! I really like the idea of the trackpad in the center, too.

@alans Thanks! It’s really comfortable to type on once you get used to it. Somehow having fewer keys makes it much easier to place your fingers correctly and know where they need to move to.

@bsag So do you use something like a QWERTY layout with other keys via mods or layers, or is the starting point something else entirely?

@alans Yes the base layer is QWERTY (though I’m experimenting with the BEAKL 15 keymap too) then I have layers for symbols, numpad, navigation and shortcuts and function keys. I’ve written in more detail about it here if you’re curious.

@bsag Oh, great post! This is the kind of wormhole I’m ready for :)

@alans Thanks! It is a wormhole of gigantic proportions, but a really fun one 🤓
