KBD.NEWS Advent Calendar 2024
The KBD.NEWS Advent Calendar is a series of longer format articles by revered members of the keyboard community, inspired by the original calendars that have been a tradition in the Japanese DIY keyboard community .
Some background on the format in this introduction , but honestly, the 2024 one is going to be rather weird. I have just a handful of write-ups.
Feel free to join and contact me if you'd like to contribute an article. Here are the guidelines for authors . Just ignore the deadline. ;)
