macropad switch
i did this project it my first one ever so i try to did something easy and practical you can plug it in USB C and each punch do something exemple:1-for changing song 2-pause/start 3- changing to the previous song 4-for changing the desk in the left 5-to create a new desk 6-change desk to the right 7-change led 8-do a screenshot 9-shuting down the rotator-change the volume it will be a plug and play
design
i designed it with a rotator and 9 switch i wanted something perfect the case it's designed for a maximum of space for cables but a minimaliste look it why it have specific shape
warning:ishearshe all the price in amazon french it can be lower in another shop
Note: the 850W power supply is for my PC and my 3D printer, not for the macropad. my parents did the sanity check

Questions
What parts does the Hackpad use?
11 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 Hackpad KiCad files?
From the Uknowmeh01/hackpad-9-switch repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hackpad/hackpad.kicad_pcb and its schematic hackpad/hackpad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Hackpad design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Uknowmeh01 before reusing the design.
