Kolibri, my first board design – kreme11.

This Kolibri keyboard with an Alice-style layout comes with arrow cluster and rotary encoder support.

Features:

  • Elite-C and THT diodes
  • gasket mount PCB
  • 4mm EVA PCB foam
  • FR4 plate
  • Stacked acrylic case
  • RGB underglow

I'm thinking of selling couple of DIY kits in the future and making it open source – kreme11.
