Devlog 1!
Hello world!

To commence this project I began my reading the DIY guide and following along, eventually splitting off and designing a keypad with my own variations! Below is a detailed overview of my keypad:

My keypad consists of 5 keys and a rotary encoder. The rotary encoder contains a switch that when pressed can be interpreted as it’s own keypress. I was hoping to use the rotary as a volume knob and it’s switch as a mute/unmute button. I placed them to the side to leave space for the controller as can be seen in the PCB design.

The keypad also has 5 LED’s, all strung together through the data in/outs. For the last feature, this keypad contains a programmable OLED screen on the top that can be used to display anything your imagination wants!

Moving forward I have yet to program the firmware, and I will also have to clean up the schematic as it’s quite messy.
