Have been using splits exclusively for many years now, and this is final variation of my keyboard
Very curious about why you didn’t make a split since you have been using them a lot, any specific reason for the design choice?

Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
Rules
Keep it ergo
Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)
i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²
¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

Portability and ease of using a trackpad. I don’t find it easy to use trackpad on one side of hand.
Ahh I c, haven’t ventured into the trackpad world yet, looks like it can definitely be used instead of a mouse when mobile computing.
Is it completely custom or is there a PCB somewhere?
Very nice look! How are you liking the Cirque pad?
I am liking it. But it still need some tweaks
Is this your own design? Are you going to share it somewhere?
Yes, will be posted on my GitHub github.com/harshitgoel96 once I am happy with it
