We love the ergonomics of split keyboards, but we were always frustrated by the messy TRRS bridge cables and the bulky plastic/3D-printed cases that usually come with wireless builds.\n\nSo, we spent the last few months developing our own solution: Elytra.\n\nThe Specs & Philosophy:\n\n100% Truly Wireless: Powered by ZMK. No wires to the PC, and absolutely zero cables between the halves. Just a perfectly clean desk.\n\nUltralight CNC Aluminum: We applied a biomimetic cutout design on the underside. It gives you the premium feel of a full-metal custom board, but the entire chassis weighs only 420g.\n\nDesigned for Longevity: We know this community values hardware that lasts. The design is modular and repair-friendly, making it easy to open up, maintain, or tweak over time.\n\nWe just opened our site for early pre-orders. Since the Fediverse has some of the most knowledgeable hardware geeks around, we’d love to get your raw feedback on the layout, the industrial design, or any ZMK configuration tips!",
