SLUUG - June 14, 2023

Generate an image showcasing the evolution of keyboards. On the left side, depict a dimly lit, standard QWERTY keyboard symbolizing the starting point. In the center, display a brightly lit, custom ergonomic keyboard, split or curved, denoting a creative DIY solution. On the right, present a well-lit, modern pre-built ergonomic keyboard, illustrating accessibility and professional use. Set these on a minimalist desk with a comfortable chair in the background, creating a welcoming workspace ambiance. Subtly, include overhead view of a Caucasian female’s hands typing on the DIY keyboard to add a human element. Small unobtrusive logos related to ergonomic keyboard brands and QMK firmware are placed along the desk edges. Faint icons of FOSS projects like Linux and BSD are scattered in the background, signifying SLUUG themes. Use a neutral color palette with vibrant colors on the keyboards to highlight progression. Maintain a balance in composition and ensure the image is a high-resolution without text.
