Would you like to contribute to this year's MK Advent Calendar? Here are the guidelines for authors, along with last year's edition for reference.

Matt Petiteau aka smallwat3r shared his latest keyboard design, the 26-key Smallcat. As with the author's earlier Sweep Cat and Sweep Cat V2 boards, this latest design feature his cat (Lila) as well.

Not long ago, I created the Sweep Cat adapted from the Sweep. But I wanted to reduce even further finger movements, so I created the Smallcat – Matt.
