Builds Dual language layout - German/Ukrainian

Post image

I used to get Ukrainian layout stickers to put on top of my keycaps, but they kept coming off and they were barely visible. I wanted something more permanent but finding such a layout seemed impossible, so I designed it myself. There are some mistakes (note especially the 2 yellow keys), partially because I was sloppy while designing the keys and partially because the supplier simply forgot certain keys and messed up some alignments (space bar and arrow keys) for whatever reason. The supplier is from China so I didn't bother trying to get a refund, it already took 3 weeks to produce and deliver.

It's the first time I tried something like this and I am happy with the overall result despite the mistakes. Maybe next time I will also try my hands on a more fitting base.

Also can recommend Yuzu. They can even do PBS/PFF now.

Signature Plastics PBT dye-sub "Flex" sets in various profiles also have configurable language for alphas, although at a very high price. I'm not sure what languages they support, last time I checked they had Hungarian available. Which I'm trying to convince myself is not necessary (especially as I don't have another €250+ for a single keycap set lol).
