Cantor by diepala

The Cantor keyboard is a 42 key diodeless split keyboard, designed with simplicity in mind. It is inspired on the popular corne, ferris and sweep keyboards, aiming to provide a more ergonomic (stronger column stagger) corne-like layout with a simple, easy to assemble and cheap design.

The Cantor is designed with the following goals:
* Comfort
* Powerful
* Low cost
* Simplicity
* Ease of build
* USB-C
* No diodes

The PCB is reversible to reduce manufacturing costs.

The Flea by jimmerricks

This is the latest of my Bugs: the Flea. The splay is a little different from the Midge and the Mosquito, with none between the index and middle finger and an extra 5 degrees between the ring and pinkie. This pushes the pinkie out a little bit while also pulling the thumb in. The thumb cluster has a slightly inverted splay to match. My main inspiration for this design is the Hypergolic.

Rae-dux by andrewjrae

The rae-dux is a 36-key (diodeless!), wireless keyboard inspired by the Architeuthis Dux. This project used to use the samoklava workflow, however the auto-router had troubles with the splay, currently I just use the image generating parts of the samoklava workflow.

Piantor by beekeeb

The keyboard name Piantor (Pi-antor) is the portmanteau of "Pico" and "Cantor". As the name suggested, it has the same strong column stagger layout as the Cantor Keyboard created by u/diepala and is powered by Rasyberry Pi Pico or other compatible RP2040 boards (e.g. WeAct RP2040).

Features
* RP2040 MCU: Low cost yet powerful microcontroller. You can enable a lot of features and layers without worrying about the firmware size limit. Rasyberry Pi Pico is reliable and easy to source too.
* Breakable pinky column: Easily convert the PCB from a 42-key to 36-key layout
* Hotswap (Kailh Choc v1 Hotswap Sockets) or soldered-in low profile choc switches: Experiment with different key switches with the hotswap sockets, or solder the key switches for a more stable build.
* Cantor layout - Ergonomic strong column staggering for short pinkies.
* Diodeless - A more robust build with fewer things to solder or break.

Avalanche by vlkv

The Avalanche keyboard is an ergonomic split keyboard with 4x6 (or 3x6 if you break off the 'digits' row) column staggered keys, 5 thumb keys, 1 additional key for the pinky (break off-able too) and 2 additional keys for the index finger (64 keys total).

Nijuni by krikun98

The Nijuni (formerly known as the RT-22) is a 44-key split keyboard inspired by the Jian (stagger, pinky and controller footprint) and the Jorne (thumb cluster and wiring).

It was originally conceived by DwarZ, however, V0.1 had a screw placement issue that restricted it to Kailh BOX-style switches. V0.2 is trouble-free, and prototypes have already been tested.

Features
* Wireless focus - battery footprint, power switches and no LEDs in sight
* Uses Jorne firmware - so QMK and ZMK support
* MX or Alps soldered or MX hotswap support in a single reversible PCB
* 6 column version also available for 100x150 PCB promos.
