Questions

How big is the Right PCB?

It measures 163.5 × 132.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Right use?

66 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 Right KiCad files?

From the mroetsc/krypton-kbd repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/right/right.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Right design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the AGPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
