The Jingis 38, designed by Jeff Hooton aka Jhootdev, is a 38-key unibody split derived from the Corne.

Designed and built my first non-hand-wired keyboard. Took everything I liked about the corne, removed the keys I didn't use on the corne, and unified everything into one board – Jeff.

Specs

  • 38 keys (6x3-ish with 2 thumb keys)
  • MX, hotswap
  • Pro Micro ATMega32U4
  • SMD diodes (but also THT footprint)
  • 3D printed case
  • Vial compatible
