Today I'm going to show you how I turned a cheap USB numeric keypad into a pad that I use for my digital painting shortcuts under GNU/Linux.

@davidrevoy Maybe try KMonad or Kanata. They provide a lot of the functionality of a QMK keyboard, e.g. different functions for tap/hold, tap-dancing, layers, mapping to key combinations, etc., with a much more readable configuration.
@omidmnz Thanks for the guidance to better method. Do you have a tutorial in mind about them for beginners?
I found it! @davidrevoy that's a good one. Be sure to at least skim the documentation though. You might find features uniquely useful for your workflow that might not be as appealing to a programmer.
