We're building a DIY 6-key mechanical keyboard / macro keypad from Kickstarter!
Kickstarter Link (ref): https://bit.ly/2YAdcQT
The "BYO (Build Your Own) Mechanical Keyboard" my painlessprototyping.com is a $35 (via Kickstarter) kit that comes with everything a beginner needs to build and program their own macro keypad. In the kit you will find an Adafruit ItsyBitsy M0 Express, a custom PCB, 6 Gateron mechanical keyboard switches, keycaps, 6 diodes, io headers, some little rubber feet, and of course, a sticker.
The Adafruit ItsyBitsy can run both C++ and Python so both Arduino and CircuitPython developers can get started with their preferred language right away.
