This is my low profile split keyboard. I made this because I really wanted to make a keyboard but also didnt want it to be too simple. This is why I made a bluetooth split keyboard. Because of it's small form factor it can "fit" into your pocket. This is useful as I really enjoy using my old RasPi on the go and a bt keyboard is realy useful.

(If you noticed that the connector for the Battery is being clipped by the top plate I decided to not use the connector but leave the footprint there as an option)
