## What it is
A source-available repository of industrial design and CAD files for 100+ Keychron keyboard and mouse models, provided in STEP, DXF, DWG, and PDF formats. It enables studying real product designs, remixing plates and cases, and designing compatible accessories under a license that permits commercial use for original compatible add-ons.

## Use cases
- design custom replacement plates or cases for my Keychron keyboard
- 3d print compatible accessories for a mechanical keyboard
- study real-world CAD files of a commercial keyboard
- create and sell third-party accessories compatible with Keychron keyboards
- find exact dimensions of a Keychron mouse for a custom dock
- learn mechanical keyboard industrial design

## When to choose
- you own a Keychron keyboard or mouse and want to modify or build accessories for it
- you need accurate CAD models of real commercial peripherals for design study
- you want to develop and sell compatible add-ons within the license terms

## When to avoid
- you need open-source firmware rather than hardware design files
- you intend to copy and resell Keychron products themselves
- you need files for non-Keychron keyboards

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, documentation
- domain: hardware, gaming-tools, cross-platform
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: cad, 3d-printing, mechanical-keyboard, hardware-design, source-available, qmk, zmk, keyboard-accessories, step-files, dxf
