I was interested in making a new PCB as I haven't made one in a couple months. I wanted to make something practical that I would use in my daily life, I often found myself annoyed by how many different enues i had to go through to adjust my bolume and brighness so I decided to fix this problem. I also wanted to showcase the pcb because I always enjoy seeing it so I decided tto not make a case for this device.

Questions
How big is the Blueprint PCB?
It measures 65.3 × 76.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Blueprint use?
70 parts, built around the SK6812MINI-E. 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 Blueprint KiCad files?
From the Jyst7/Sound-Controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/Blueprint.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/Blueprint.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Blueprint 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).
