Corax56 vs Corax54
I initially designed the Corax56 (=56 keys) with 4 pinky keys. The upper key (usually mapped to ESC) was placed in a new column because I found it easier to reach horizontally than vertically. Over the time, I realized that I am not using this button very often. The Corax54 was born as a more compact version where the pinky cluster misses this additonal column and has only 54 keys (2 less). This is the only difference between the two versions.
Firmware
Natively supports ZMK. The firmware for the Corax56 and Corax56 can be found in the submodule and is available here: https://github.com/dnlbauer/corax-zmk-config
