Ilex is a 44 key split ergo with exposed components,
optional dual rotary encoders, OLEDS, and reversible TRRS
jacks. The current version of the PCB supports LED
underglow, Kailh Hotswap sockets on the North face, and
Through-Hole Soldering on the South Face.
The layout is
a 5x3 staggered column, a three key thumb cluster, a
deconstructed pinkie column with an angled mod, and two
optional 128x32 OLED displays. Rotary encoders are also
optional on the key south of the OLED. 44 Keys total, 42
with both encoders.
There are two options for placement
of the TRRS jacks: The first option is on the top edge
facing north, the other is on the inside edge just south of
the encoder. This provides more customization options for
cable placement. Currently, there is only MX switch support,
however Choc may be available in future if there is enough
demand.
Firmware is now working in QMK.

Layout Image
The layout is still being
tweaked as using it over time shows various inefficiencies
and improvements to its mapping for common uses.
I’ve
included a pic below of its current keymap, just be aware
that this a WIP and is likely to change.
The layout is heavily influenced by the Jian layout,
which is an extremely efficient mapping based around using
both Latin and Cyrillic alphabets with a limited number of
keys.
More details to come.
