## Overview

This is a limited-time introductory YSWS (you ship, we ship) where *you* design your own macropad, and we'll ship it to you for free! This is something you definitely don't want to miss out, so make sure to join #hackpad in the slack!

- 3 PCBs! Keep one for yourself, or share some with your friends. Or you can keep them all, I won't judge.

- a Seeed XIAO RP2040 microcontroller. They're pretty nifty microcontrollers, so you can use them for something else too
19

- Switches! Choices TBD, but you'll have a great selection
20
18
- Other components you may need, such as LEDs, diodes, knobs, OLED screens, and more!
21

- Your case! You can either have it 3D printed, laser cut in acrylic, or both.
22

- A grab bag of DSA keycaps, and a custom Hack Club keycap too.

You can get the macropads soldered if you don't have a soldering iron, or we can send you the parts directly if you're up for a soldering task. The only catch is that if you want it to be soldered, you _must_ use through-hole components only!

### Requirements:

26
- You design a macropad that integrates a [Seeed XIAO RP2040](https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/XIAO-RP2040/) as the main MCU. Nothing else allowed, sorry!
29
27
- It has 20 or less inputs. A single input includes a rotary encoder, switch etc.
30

- It is meaningfully unique to you. This could be as simple as making a custom layout and adding some decor, or as elaborate as writing an entire firmware in Rust

Once that's done, you can go on and make a PR. The instructions will be in the template.

This YSWS is only guaranteed to run through October 21st, so make sure to get yours submitted before then. Depending on skill level, this should take roughly 6-12 hours to finish.
