Show HN: Custom Keylabels for Your Custom Keyboard Layouts

1 points by drekipus a year ago

Hey HN,

I last posted this about a month ago and got a bit of feedback. I took it onboard and worked on the demonstration a little bit.

For those who haven't seen this: When playing around with the layouts on my keyboard, I wished there was a way I could change the labels of my keys as well (so to remember which key is which in what layer) -- this lead me to think up kapd.au as a keylabel service.

Can be used for mapping out your layers, pimping out your keyboard, making an emoji keyboard, or my favourite idea is to use it for language learning (such as learning to use CJK or Cyrillic keyboards). The stickers and print are very high quality.

Ultimately, I want to have a service where I print on the keys themselves ( and offer different shaped / coloured keys) as a full bespoke key process for the non-traditional keyboard types, but I'm trying to verify demand a bit first.

Let me know what you think and please feel free to send it to any people you know who have custom keyboards and layouts!
