This is an optimized Dvorak keyboard layout. If you're here, and wondering if YOU should use it, I would say it's very unlikely. The potential userbase is people who:
- currently use a Dvorak keyboard layout (since this is an optimized variant of Dvorak)
- are insufficiently happy with how vastly superior the Dvorak layout is over the Qwerty layout
- are willing to learn a new keyboard layout that changes the location of 23 keys relative to Dvorak (that's way overkill, in hindsight)
For those people (probably only me), I can recommend it. I've typed on it for 10 years now (as of 2025). For more details see here.
But mainly, it's here so I have easy access to it when I'm on a new machine, because it's painful for me to type without it.
I generated the layout image using the Colemak Mod-DH analysis tool.
