A parameterized generator for the Dactyl, a split-hand, concave, columnar ergonomic keyboard, written in Clojure that emits OpenSCAD models for 3D printing. It includes pregenerated STL files and wiring guides for building the keyboard.

Use cases

  • generate a custom ergonomic split keyboard model
  • 3D print a dactyl keyboard case
  • customize key well curvature and column count for a keyboard
  • design a concave columnar keyboard in OpenSCAD
  • build a hand-wired ergonomic keyboard from scratch

When to choose

  • you want a proven, widely forked split ergonomic keyboard design you can tweak parametrically
  • you are comfortable with Clojure and OpenSCAD workflows
  • you want ready-made STL files to print without modifying the design

When to avoid

  • you want a polished consumer keyboard product rather than a DIY 3D-printed build
  • you need active maintenance or recent releases - the project has been dormant since 2021
  • you prefer GUI-based CAD tools over code-generated models
