Questions
How big is the Split Keyboard HackClub PCB?
It measures 246.5 × 111 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Split Keyboard HackClub use?
119 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 Split Keyboard HackClub KiCad files?
From the gtmsprs/SplitKey_Board---Typeface repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCAD Schematics/Split Keyboard_HackClub.kicad_pcb and its schematic KiCAD Schematics/Split Keyboard_HackClub - L.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Split Keyboard HackClub design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
