They're mostly using off the shelf chinese esp modules. They look like very polished hobby projects. I'm a little envious of someone making what they want and selling it to people who want to buy it. |

I have a macropad8, it’s nothing special, it works, the provided “case” is somewhat lacking (just two sheets of lasered acrylic with spacers), but there are 3d models for better ones online. |

You mean the Seeed XIAO boards right? Because most what I saw of them they were using the RP2040 chip (which is not ESP under the hood...is it?) |

RP2040 is another jellybean part, much of a muchness. I've got both on devboards in my parts box. |

a good learning example would be recreating his designs yourself in CAD and writing your own firmware, or rolling your own version of QMK or whatever its running |
