I made a macropod called the handypad! The most challenging part was probably designing the PCB since it was my first time. The clean CAD is probably what I am most proud of. Everything you should know is pretty straightforward. the keys are short cuts screen displays an animation and knob is for volume.

Removed one switch for better component placement. Finished routing the traces after a while of trying to figure out why I couldn’t draw a trace over another.
