How to make your own layout

Layouts are in json format

basic structure is as follow

{
    "layout": [
        // rows
        [
            //keys
             {
                "size": float //size in units
                "char": string //optional for UI module
                "k_type": bit // 0: hidden (spacer) 1: visible (key)
            },
        ],
        [
        ],
        [
        ],

    "options": {
        "plate_height": f32 //how thick the plate needs to be, defaults to 20mm
        "screw_holes": bool // adds m2 sized holes at the edge of the plate
                            // not that useful at the moment, needs to be
                            // moved more in to allow heat inserts to be 
                            // used

                "index": integer // column index (zero based)
                "offset": float // vertical offset (used to achieve vertical stagger)
                                // column needs to be the same key size
                                // rows need to have the same amount keys/spacers
            },
        ]
    }
