Hi!
I’ve (already) opened the issue on GitHub and that can/should be kept for the final technical specs.
https://github.com/dessalines/thumb-key/issues/602
I’d like to open the thread here to work out and discuss any details.
The layout would use the full width and is suited for two-hand typing:
Some of my immediate questions would be:
- Does this fit the idea behind the ThumbKey app? It is for thumb typing, after all.
- How to get a good layout? The hype is on AI but people have been doing this through trial and error for a while now.
The data from Letter Frequency Analysis of Languages Using Latin Alpha, should provide some ideas as to which keys to have as touch-type (as opposed to swipe-type). However, Dvorak uses the most common keys as the middle row, so they should all be displayed. We need to define a new “middle row”, I guess.
