    I am interested in the 3x5+3 version and would love to get Miryoku on it, plus of course the track pad needs to work, too. Is there an easy way, like a qmk workflow build that achieves this? Or another guide that describes it?

    Is this keyboard wireless? If not I couldn’t imagine using it because the wires would sit in your lap

      It isn’t wireless. I’m not sure how the wires would end up in your lap when the keyboard is on your desk.

          Oh no, the red cable is actually facing away from you when using it. I guess I shouldn’t have taken these pictures at these angles 😅

        I think they said that because the wires seem to be going toward the user instead of away like a typical keyboard. Edit… Unless you’re supposed to use it the other way and turn your hands out instead of in.

        They’re two separate halves, when using it you’ll put them further apart from each other…

      The 4 keys next to each other are the thumb keys, so the keyboard would sit like this on the desk.

    Is this kit no longer available? I’ve been waiting forever for splitkb to release the Elora to compliment my kyria for when I need a number row (gaming), but this seems like the next best thing.

    Looks near, but the location of the track pad doesn’t seem particularly useful… but I suppose that’s entirely user opinion

      I find it alright for quick mouse movement using my index finger. As main I prefer a thumb trackball.

    Looks really neat! Will you apply letters / paint for identifying the keys?

    I really like the construction, if I could try something and customize it to my hands and my workflow / comfort / ergonomics / productivity AND customize the firmware (key macros, binds etc) that could be really neat!

    What is your particular use case? Gaming? Streaming? Programming? Typing all day?

    I suppose having multiple keyboards is also an option
