Buswerks' 4x12 Ortholinear Layout

For use on Planck, Let's Split, and similar keyboards

Layout Overview

  • Main Layer

    • Enter is located on the Raise key (layer-tap)
    • Space Cadet shift keys
      • Lower + shift keys = Brackets[]
      • Raise + shift keys = Braces{}
    • The bottom left key is the Adjust modifier
    • Escape is in the traditional Caps Lock position
      • Holding down the escape key acts as LGUI (intended for macOS use)
  • Lower

    • There is a numpad on the right hand (4, 5, and 6 are located under JKL/NEI/HTN)
    • Plus and minus keys are located to the right of the numpad
    • There are macOS desktop navigation keys and volume controls under the left hand
  • Raise

    • Vim-style arrow keys
      • Below the arrow keys are home, end, pgup, and pgdn
    • Symbols are located on the right side of the keyboard, in a somewhat logical order
      • Symbols from the number row are in order, starting on the left pinky.
      • Equals and underscore are in easily accessible spots, since they're commonly used in programming
      • The ampersand is less common, so it's to the right of the equals symbol
  • Adjust

    • Function keys are located along the top row (reset is moved to the Colemak 'R' position)
