Building an RP2040 Powered Shortcut Keyboard #RP2040 @TomsHardware

Tom’s Hardware posts a programmable keypad powered by a Raspberry Pi RP2040:

The Pimoroni Keybow 2040 is a 16-key keyboard which can be programmed in CircuitPython to act as a USB keyboard. Each single key can be programmed to launch an application, control audio levels, switch scenes in OBS or paste funny cat pictures to Twitter.

In this how-to, we will set up Keybow 2040 to be a general purpose keyboard with page navigation keys, OBS shortcuts and two hot keys to launch common applications.

See the video below and the article for details
