Chouchou (Japanese for butterfly) is a minimalist unibody keyboard designed to be used with the Taipo layout.

It uses a cheap RP2040-Zero MCU and requires no diodes since the 20 edge pinouts it provides is the exact number of keys Taipo requires. It was created with Ergogen and KiCad.

    With the 25g I can only rest about half the weight of my fingers on the keys without triggering something, but with the 35g I can rest the full weight comfortably. If I’m practicing a lot then I do notice my fingers get sore after a couple of hours on the 35g, but for normal use it’s probably fine.

      Thanks, that’s really helpful! I think 35g is probably good for my usage then. I’m not typing long paragraphs of text all day long.
