The only customiseable keyboard i want is one made of glass - a screen like macbook’s touchbar - where i can move keys around, add custom keys, or simply “enable” and show only those relevant to what i’m using. Ie if i play a game to only shows wasd plus tool keys. And those tools keys to be renamed to whatever their purpose is.

This would be a nice application for eink, if it ever got cheap enough.

  Small eInk displays of that size are already cheap, probably <$1 if I were to guess.

    This was done, albeit with small led displays back in 2007. Google lebedev Optimus

> move keys around This isn't a common feature, but I've seen that Dumang keyboards can do this. https://www.velocifiretech.com/products/dumang-dk6-ergo-v2?variant=39757815677046 https://www.velocifiretech.com/products/dumang-dk6-ergo-v2?v... > customiseable keyboard i want is one made of glass - a screen like macbook’s touchbar Other than using a tablet as a keyboard (I guess), I've seen keyboards like https://fluxkeyboard.com/ https://fluxkeyboard.com/ which sorta seem to go for this "customize the labels based on what I'm doing". IMO, though... your hands are covering the keycaps. If you have to look down at the keyboard to see the labels, it's going to be more cumbersome than just presenting a toolbar on the screen.
