me: I need to make a simple web-app for a projectalso me: I need to learn some react basics for a job interview

@foone does that mean you need to drink more water or?

[pyxaron@dragonchat.org]

@foone It took me a moment to figure out that "Hydration error" is an actual thing in react and not just a way of saying it made you spill your drink.

[foone@digipres.club]

What obvious layout am I missing?

[ben@mastodon.lubar.me]

@foone one of those cursed alphabetical ones

[chrisjrn@social.coop]

@foone left single-hand Dvorak, right single-hand Dvorak?

[confusomu@twoot.site]

@foone Bépo!

[fen@yiff.life]

@foone i wouldn't say "obvious", but there is an alternative to the french AZERTY keyboard, BÉPO (it's kinda like the french version of Dvorak), that a bunch of my friends and colleagues use

[foone@digipres.club]

@chrisjrn handedness is handled (no pun intended) at a different layer

[foone@digipres.club]

@Baa Yup yup, added that

[chrisjrn@social.coop]

@foone ok, but single-hand Dvorak then?

[noah@mastodon.despise.computer]

@foone ABCDEF, of course

[lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me]

@Baa @foone Also maybe JIS qwerty aka japanese layout (few characters like parens off by one, plus extra keys)

[foone@digipres.club]

I updated it a bit.

(I should add ĄŽERTY just in case I ever flirt with any Lithuanian tranfems)

[ar@is-a.cat]

@foone Dvorak, but with the original number ordering

[thomasfuchs@hachyderm.io]

@foone I wonder if it’s possible to determine the layout from a single keypress of a specific key the app tells you to press (by position)

[josh0@babka.social]

@foone I mean, I might argue that you should flirt with some Lithuanian transfems in order to use ĄŽERTY.

[artemist@social.mildlyfunctional.gay]

@foone what languages is this for?

i know neo exists for german but i have no idea how many people actually use it. i'd also consider swedish qwerty and american qwerty fairly different.

[patrick@hatoya.cafe]

@foone@digipres.club ŜĜERTŬ, the Esperanto layout /jk

[georgeharito@mastodon.au]

@foone are you focusing only on Latin script? Cos there’s JCUKEN (Russian layout) – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JCUKEN

[jannem@fosstodon.org]

@foone
Swedish and other Nordic layouts (including Dvorak versions - "svorak" for Swedish). Turkish. I'm sure many others.

How important is it for you to know the physical layout of the keyboard? Could you get away with a subset of keys? Let it be user configurable?
