Questions

How big is the 4-keys PCB?

It measures 124.8 × 52.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the 4-keys use?

30 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U4-AU and PRTR5V0U2X. 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 4-keys KiCad files?

From the paulsvc/4-keys repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is 4Keys.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the 4-keys design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask paulsvc before reusing the design.
