Welcome to squeekboard’s documentation!

Introduction

Squeekboard is the on-screen keyboard for Phosh. It is primarily designed for smartphones, tablet-PCs, and other devices with touchscreens.

Building

For information about building Squeekboard, read the README.

Layouts

Squeekboard can load user-provided keyboard-layouts. Those can be created and used without recompiling the keyboard code. The tutorial explains the process in detail.

Layouts are created using a text-based format, based on YAML.

Views

Squeekboard layouts are separated into views and use a room metaphor to switch views.

Contributions

Anyone is free to modify squeekboard. See the contributing document.
