An open-source modular smart mechanical keyboard project (Hanwen/HelloWord) including full hardware design files (10 PCBs, enclosures, 3D models), STM32-based keyboard and module firmware, and a secondary development SDK. The left-side module slot supports swappable components, with the default Dynamic module featuring an e-ink display and a FOC force-feedback knob.
Use cases
- build a custom modular mechanical keyboard from open hardware
- customize keyboard firmware with multi-layer key mappings and RGB effects
- develop apps for a force-feedback knob with e-ink display module
- integrate keyboard RGB control with SignalRGB via HID protocol
- learn FOC motor control and shift-register key scanning on STM32
- flash prebuilt firmware onto the keyboard and Dynamic module
When to choose
- you want to fabricate and assemble your own smart keyboard from open PCB and enclosure files
- you need a hackable STM32 keyboard firmware base with HID, RGB, and non-volatile config
- you want to experiment with modular input devices like force-feedback knobs and touch bars
When to avoid
- you just need an off-the-shelf keyboard with software-only customization
- you expect a polished consumer product with guaranteed support and documentation
- you need a keyboard firmware for non-STM32 or QMK/ZMK-compatible hardware
