Hi,
When I saw this layout, I've instantly felt it's my endgame :o however I also would like to go wireless with things like nice!nano. Is it possible that you'd make this possible? :)

Thanks for the kind words! Sorry for the late response, I didnt see your issue earlier.

As the board uses an mcu directly soldered to the PCB this would need a complete redesign to fit the nrf52840 plus charging circuits, an antenna and a battery.

This is doable but the current layout and schematic is tightly coupled to the gd32vf103 or stm32f303 mcus. For a proper wireless build the rgb LEDs and OLEDs don't make much sense as they consume a lot of power. That is why a wireless version would use a very different design, which I just don't have the time for sorry.

The easiest way would be to fork this repo and replace the on-board mcu with a nicenano footprint or go all the way and do an on-board nrf52840.

Subscribing should @KarlK90's wants/needs ever motivate them to do such a redesign. Or any friendly stranger with the skillset to fork and do so.

Thanks :)
