• CreeperMario brought new life into this project and ported it to HBL and also made it available for use in other projects (see README).

beta3 2016/03/26

• It took some time, but here it is: BETA3.
• This version adds themes, that can be switched in the menu, to the application.

beta2 2016/02/20

• I totally forgot BETA1, but I'm not making this mistake with BETA2.
• This version features everything BETA1 also featured (look here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/wip-wiiu-keyboard.414995), but he keys are now positioned like they are in the real QWERTZ/QWERTY layout! It also has two new characters (colon and period).
