Hi. So the main input I do on my Keyboardio is some JavaScript coding. As with all C based syntax there is a lot of (){}[]<>. With a standard QWERTY keyboard those modifiers are quite easy, as they are all under the ‘shift’ modifier. With the standard keybnoardio mapping some are under shift and so…
