Has anyone used a programmable keyboard with "home row mods" like this? (sunaku.github.io)

The author seems to be using the engram layout but i would be interested if anyone's tried this with qwerty

Putting Ctrl in the home row by replacing the useless Caps-Lock is sufficient for me .

Alt is easily reached with the thumbs and shift is already close enough to the home row, with shift-ctrl using both pinkies.

i have been running qmk keyboards with capslock bound to esc on tap, alt when pressed as well + evdoublebind to achieve the same for the laptop's builtin keyboard

i do like the idea of not having to come off the home row for ctrl-* mappings in vim
