The following is a schematic made on KiCAD.
The following is the PCB made on KiCAD.
The following image is the final assembled version (CAD not the real one, I will update my readme.md once I finish building the actual Hackropad).

Questions
How big is the Hack Club Macropad PCB?
It measures 77 × 80 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Hack Club Macropad use?
20 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 Hack Club Macropad KiCad files?
From the UnLuckyAppDev/hackropad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/Hack_Club_Macropad.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/Hack_Club_Macropad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Hack Club Macropad 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).
