$ KB2040 — Custom Keyboard Firmware
Custom keyboard firmware built on the KB2040 microcontroller, designed to streamline repetitive workflows into single keystrokes.
- →Wrote custom keyboard firmware in CircuitPython on a KB2040 microcontroller. Analyzed the most time-consuming repetitive actions in my workflow and mapped them to programmable keys.
- →Frequently used terminal commands, IDE shortcuts, and system operations were reduced to single key combinations. A layered structure was built to allow context-aware behavior on the same keys.
- →Since key combinations are defined in software, they can be updated without changing the hardware. Adding a new workflow to the firmware takes only minutes.
- →Long and repetitive command sequences were bound to macros on a single key. This resulted in significant time savings — especially for Docker commands, git operations, and log analysis workflows.
