Overview
Keyboard is an open-source printed circuit board by Sp1me, from the Sp1me/dvaboard repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 333.2 × 127.2 mm with 193 parts on 165 nets, routed with 1,489 tracks and 323 vias.
Its parts include 122 diodes, 62 switches, 1 IC and 1 connector. It belongs with the keyboards and input boards and the RP2040 boards of this library.
README
README.mdD.VAboard
My first custom keyboard. It's kind of scuffed. This is a 60% custom mechanical keyboard, powered by a Raspberry Pi Pico. Almost completely designed from scratch using KiCad and Autodesk Fusion. I wanted to make this project because there's a huge custom keyboard community online, which means theres tons of resources for me to draw upon. As a beginner, I really just wanted to learn the basics of KiCad and (regular) CAD while also doing a genuinely impressive and cool project. I also really like how you can personalize everything you do and make it completely your own by putting images and text on both the PCBs and the case, which is definitely a benefit of building something completely from scratch.
Why D.VA???
I honestly don't really know, it was the first thing that came to mind since I play Overwatch a lot and she's my main.
Building guide
I actually haven't built this yet, but the idea is to 3D print the case, get the PCB delivered by JLC PCB, and then attatch everything together with M2 screws. The PCB would be attatched through the keyboard plate and all the electronic components would need to be soldered onto the PCB (Except the switches which should just pop on). I also haven't flashed the firmware yet because I haven't built it, so I will update when I get that done.

Questions
How big is the Keyboard PCB?
It measures 333.2 × 127.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Keyboard use?
193 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 Keyboard KiCad files?
From the Sp1me/dvaboard repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/keyboard.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad/kbmatrix.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Keyboard 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).
