    Yeah, they’re infinitely customizable. I have two regular keys where my space bar should be on my keyboard. As a result, I’ve programmed tapping the left one to insert a space, but holding it down acts as CTRL, and tapping the right acts as backspace, while holding down the right acts as shift.

      The true magic of QMK is that you can flash the programming onto the device and all of these features work independent of the system it’s connected to.

      Often keyboards are advertised as having much of the same customizability but it depends on companion software to work.

      That is not the case with QMK

        That is a seriously underrated feature and I wish I could find a ‘mmo mouse’ with the same capability. Would pay many dollars for this, personally.
