TALKS

As a self-proclaimed "keyboard addict", I experiment with all sorts of unconventional setups - from disabling my mouse buttons to shuffling around every key on my keyboard. This all started when I began to have serious RSI issues 5 years ago, forcing me to reevaluate my entire setup. Since then, I've tried all kinds of keyboards, layouts and shortcut optimizations.

Although this journey started as a personal quest for comfort, I have now assembled a bunch of practical tips that can benefit any developer - whether you type with two fingers or 100 words per minute blindfolded.

In this talk, I'll confess all about my addiction and will rank my experiments from absolutely essential to absurdly eccentric. You'll walk away with useful strategies to create a keyboard setup that's both comfortable and efficient.
