Meeting Notes (2020 04 21)

• Would like to better handle differences in key presses when holding down a button, repeating keystrokes.
• General discussion on the different types of keyboard animations, trying to come to a better understanding of what a more general animation library should look like. Time-based and reactive animations.
• Multiple keybows or keyboards connected together into a cluster, being managed by a single animation compositor. Virtual UI for building and testing different keyboard layouts and configurations.
• Discussion on feasibility of using OpenGL, maybe via scenic, for managing the canvas that keys are mapped against.
• Discussion of PR #12. Seems like a good improvement so far. Will need to take many steps to eventually get to the final design.
• Short walkthrough of how QMK stores its configuration for keyboards.
• Discuss next steps to automate the nerves base image to include upstream changes.

Action Items

• Alex to add the any_color type to PR #12 and merge.
• Chris to perform the renaming for issue #10, including nerves_system_kebow and releasing an updated Nerves artifact.
