I completed coding the firmware, its pretty confusing for which I needed AI for helping me. But I think i have understood how it works.
Anyways, I am done designing the macropad. I wrote the README with reference to the Orpheuspad
. I am going to submit today. Hopefully, it will get approved.
Adding the title was so hard!! AI was hallucinating, so I had to find the solution on my own. I think its pretty 
Thanks to @ahmedtantawy832, they helped me on how to add the title onto the case. I am gonna start working on the firmware, which looks very scary 
Switched from Fusion to Onshape becus i switched to linux hehe :D
Anywho, I completed the case and will start coding the firmware soon. Tbh, Onshape is not bad either and its kinda better since we dont have limits on how many project we can work on unlike Fusion.
I started working on the case. Also btw i added another key and a knob to be more unique yk
.
Tbh, fusion is the best cad software i have ever used, and u can see i have seen many from the time i have spent on my keyboard 
I completed the PCB. It was pretty easy since I have a lot of experience from the KEEB ysws (i couldnt submit on time btw).
Idk why the guide did not have problems with the key pins overlapping with the microcontroller, well i had. So, I had to put it on the side, due to which the board is so thick. 
Then, i thought maybe i could add an OLED. OML bro, it so freaking complicated, so I am gonna adjust with the thickness
