TLTR
---
---
A bespoke cross-platform multi-layer 38-key keyboard layout for programmers, i.e., it optimizes for:
1. Minimal mouse/trackpad dependency
2. Convenient numbers & symbols access
3. Execution of complex keyboard shortcuts w/o cumbersome finger gymnastics.
4. Interoperability b/w [ANSI US](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ANSI_Keyboard_Layout_Diagram_with_Form_Factor.svg) & other ergo-split keyboard configurations, viz., [corne](https://github.com/foostan/crkbd/), [cantor](https://github.com/diepala/cantor), [ferris](https://github.com/pierrechevalier83/ferris), etc..
