A 2-row, 16-key keyboard designed for smartphones
Mobile keyboards today are almost entirely based on the 26-key, 3-row QWERTY layout. Here’s a new 2-row, 16-key alternative designed specifically for smartphones.
In plain words
This product is a mobile keyboard featuring a compact 2-row, 16-key layout designed as an alternative to the standard QWERTY arrangement. Unlike traditional smartphone keyboards that use 26 keys across three rows, this design reimagines the input method specifically for mobile devices. It aims to offer a different approach to typing on smartphones, potentially providing improved efficiency or ergonomics through its streamlined key configuration.

I had an issue a few years ago - every ergonomic keyboard I tried had the switches too close to each other and my fingers were cramped in that small space. Then I decided to create a keyboard which is suitable for larger hands and eliminates most of the wrist movement. 34 keys was the most optimized version for achieving as little wrist movement as possible. You can try the fitment for your palm IRL with the printable template on the website.

When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite/wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it.
