For later tweaking, I recommend getting a key cap puller.

Software

Reconfiguring was super easy with the Crysalis software, see my GitHub for configuration.

Tricks

I mapped some keys to special chars in the us-intl layout, using the AltGr modifier works fine; remember to (re)set the X11 keyboard layout after plugging it in.

Layout

See the repo for details; I decided to use Colemak-DHm as a basis.

Matrix Colemak-DHm

For learning I can recommend Colemak Academy, it’s less boring and has more real words than others.
