MacroPad - Macro Keyboard

The MacroPad is a Raspberry Pi PICO based Micropython macro keyboard. I features a SD card that can hold multiple macro sets for each program you load on the card. Each TXT file can map a caption, color, and series of key strokes to one key. It also contains the macro set name and global color for the keys. You can press the dedicated button to select the macro set held on the SD card and alter the key/screen brightness.
