I love this. Obviously it's similar to a Pi 400 and I've seen other people integrate a Pi or something similar into a keyboard. But the Framework laptop makes an ideal system to use in something like this. It definitely has me thinking of trying something similar.

I read the title 5 time s and I still can't figure out what that sentence means.

Framework is a modular DIY laptop company/design. They're saying the mainboard from a Framework laptop is being used as the basis for a custom "60% mechanical keyboard", which is a keyboard that only has 60% of the keys that a standard keyboard has (so no numpad, F keys, etc.) . So a Framework Laptop Mainboard is Powering a 60% Custom Mechanical Keyboard.

I hope none of that comes across as condescending, just trying to break it down.
