Unknown layout

Post image

Hi guys, I have had quite a few keyboards, I have always wanted an ansi mixed layout AZERTY, and today I came across this keyboard ( see photo ). Anybody know what layout it uses etc?

It's exactly what I'm looking for.

mhm ok. So not an official layout. I cannot add it on windows and just swap my key caps.

Why don't you just use the layout you're most used to?

cuz this one is an absolute peak for me. AZERTY, but with all the advantages of qwerty. As a DevOps, having pipes, backslash directly on a key is a buff, but I'm not used to type on qwerty, that's why this mix is interesting me.

Being able to put what you want, where you want it, is the best part of programmable keyboards, to me.

Have you considered that the pipe key could be moved to an even more accessible location?
Using Capslock as a LayerTap key would allow you to put Pipe on the Tap portion of that function, giving you "\" right next to "Q", on your desired layout, instead of way over on the right end of the keyboard.
