First time doing hardware, first time posting a devlog, kinda nervous ~

So what’s RapidPad? Just my own HackPad I plan to torture with (this means trying out a bunch of stuff on it). It’ll have nine keys, a rotary encoder, and an OLED screen (subject to change, of course).

Anyways:

• Created a schematic. This took ages to modify: initially wanted 16 keys, but not enough connections, and I wanted to add a bunch of other stuff. In the end, I settled on nine keys, a rotary encoder and the OLED panel. Then had to learn matrix-wiring: Joe Scotto’s tutorial was pretty good
• Created a PCB. I attached a photo to show I 100% definitely knew what I was doing :> Jokes aside, I was not sure what I was doing. I’m going to ask in #hackpad, but if you have feedback, PLEASE TELL ME

Anyways, it’s 0254. I’m going to sleep goodbye
