Dactyl ManuForm Mini Keyboard

This is a fork of the Dactyl-ManuForm. The Dactyl-Manuform is a fork of the Dactyl with the thumb cluster from ManuForm.

Features

  • Sidenub is disabled by default so that Kailh, Outemu and other switches can be used. If you use Cherry MX or Gateron switches, you can enable the sidenubs.
  • One key in the thumb cluster has been removed. Other thumb keys are also adjusted.
  • The total height is reduced and wire posts are removed. This results in a higher printing speed and a lower cost.
  • A TRRS mount instead of a RJ9 mount is used.
  • A micro USB mount is used. A breakout board, or an extension cable can be used.
  • Screw posts are moved inside.
  • The pro micro holder has been modified. Dupont cables can be used.

Future plans (PR is welcome)

  • Move screw posts 3mm upwards so that the bottom plate can be inserted into the case.
  • Add smoothing.
