## DK60

Just another fun(?) keyboard with HHKB layout.

Can accept normal caps lock or stepped. No backlit or RGB leds, just 2 leds on Caps lock and Esc.

All caps are in standard size to increase choice of keysets!
Accept MX, ALPS and clones switches.

## DK60TP

:warning: Still in development :warning:
DK60TP is just a big update of DK60 with support for IBM Trackpoint and backlit.
My goal is to recreate a Tex Yoga like but with many custom layouts.
Electronic is divided in 3 parts:
* Keyboard PCB (compatible with some 60% Poker cases)
* Mouse buttons PCB
* IBM Trackpoint
