Overview
Hackpad is an open-source printed circuit board by fireslash88, from the fireslash88/Slashpad repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 66 × 87 mm with 25 parts on 21 nets, routed with 84 tracks and 0 vias.
Its parts include 7 diodes, 7 switches, 1 IC and 1 connector. It belongs with the keyboards and input boards of this library.
README
README.mdSlashpad
This is my submission for the Hackpad challenge!
Slashpad is a 6 key macropad with a Rotary Encoder and OLED Display, and uses the QMK Firmware!
Inspiration for the name of the pad
I named the pad after my username online! As you can see, my name on github is "fireslash88" and that's pretty much the same for every other account I have online! I have another username that I actually use more than this one but I prefer to use slash now..

Case
This is the case I modeled in Fusion 360!
Firmware
The Slashpad uses the QMK firmware for everything! (Will include VIA in the future)
Thanks!
A great thanks to Hack Club to have made this project possible!
Cats
Yes. I love cats so I decided to put some silly cats I found on Pinterest on the PCB. They're pretty and I love them so uhh... Yeah... Cats.. Meow..

Questions
How big is the Hackpad PCB?
It measures 66 × 87 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Hackpad use?
25 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Hackpad KiCad files?
From the fireslash88/Slashpad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/Hackpad.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/Hackpad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Hackpad design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask fireslash88 before reusing the design.
