A programmable pad that includes 12 keys used for keyboard shortcuts in apps like Slack and OBS.
Looks great! Approved!
Your design looks great! THe only thing is that you are missing a productiono folder, which should include the stls for the case, compiled firmware, and the gerbers.zip.
Devlog #6
Made the PCB go in the case and added a hole for USB. The hackpad is done
The PCB looks great! However, right now the PCB goes on top of the case, but it should fit inside. Make the case and the lid bigger so the PCB can fit inside, and there is space for the switches and parts of the PCB. Also in your ReadME, include a picture of the case from the top.
Devlog #5
Im pretty sure i finished the hackpad, it was my first hardware project and im proud of it because i learned so much, for some reason i couldnt add the time of finishing the firmware but overall it took me like an hour and a half
Devlog #4
For some reason i couldnt add lapses to this project but it took me around 2 hours to create the ‘‘case’’
i dont even know if it counts as one because its just 2 plates screwed together, most of the time went into learning onshape because i barely used it before
Devlog #3
It took me a power outage, five routing attempts and almost 4 hours to make the PCB and route everything correctly because i didnt know that i could route it with blue cables but after all im glad how it turned out.
After 2 hours i managed to add more keys
After an hour i managed to make the basic schematic and add a rotary encoder switch
