Whimsy board IS FINALLY COMPLETE
Firmware was honestly hell with the build times and sparse (im also not that smart) and sometimes confusing QMK documentation
CAD WAS HELLLL Took so long to even understand how to even start but eventually moved to onshape which was MUCH easier
Schematic was the best and the most delulu stage imagining your board and how simple it is to make smth like this and then you find out why they cost so much aft
PCB routing is a diff hell i have a new sense of appreciation for every single pcb that exists so simply w no vias
Done w the physical board and design added A shark cuz my ikea plush whimsy cuz ppl call me that and then some song lyrics which i love as a bonus 😭
currently is a 3*4 matrix of switches w a rotary encoder and a oled display
Top section of the encoder and two keys are gonna be reserved for playing music
