fullflat

Fullflat refers to a type of keyboard layout designed to minimize the physical height of the keyboard. This is achieved by using low-profile keycaps and switches, which reduce the distance a key needs to travel to register a keystroke. The goal of a fullflat design is often to create a more ergonomic typing experience by allowing the wrists to remain in a more neutral position, reducing strain during prolonged use.

These keyboards are commonly found in laptops and compact desktop keyboards where space is a premium. The reduced key travel can also lead to a quieter typing experience compared to traditional mechanical keyboards. While some users find the shallower keypresses less satisfying or precise, others appreciate the speed and reduced effort required for typing. Fullflat keyboards can be found with various switch types, including membrane and low-profile mechanical switches, each offering a different tactile and auditory feedback. The overall aesthetic of fullflat keyboards tends to be sleek and modern due to their slim profile.
