Pi5 is a unibody split 38-key keyboard designed and shared by Luke Schutt aka ihihbs.

Inspiration heavily drawn from the ChocV. With the different revisions I'd changed the name multiple times as I realized they're too close to other projects but forgot to check "Pi5" while having fun drawing the logo. I'm open to other suggestions – ihihbs.

The board consists of two boards, the main PCB and a mounting plate. The switches are on a 19x19mm spacing with the footprint supporting Kailh Choc V1, V2, Gateron low profile, and (untested) MX switches.
