"Ferris" is a DIY Keyboard designed by Pierre Chevalier.
The version I am making in the video is a "Ferris Sweep" (v2). This version was designed by David Philip Barr and it makes the original Ferris easier to build on your own.

Compatible micro controllers include:
- Pro Micro
- Elite C (featured in the video)
- Nice!Nano (wireless)
If you wish to build a wireless version you will not need the TRRS jacks and cable; instead you will need two batteries and optionally two ON/OFF switches. If you don't get ON/OFF switches you will rely on the ZMK standby/sleep feature (nothing wrong with it).
