Personalized Keyboard Layout

Here is what the optimal layout of your keyboard would be if it were tailored to fit the way you type. The layout is based on a frequency analysis of what you typed. The more you type, the more accurate the layout will be. I should note that the generated design does not take into account how often you switch hands while typing or how close together common letter pairings are. Most modern layouts take into account ergonomic considerations as well as key usage.
