Framework is building its own keyboard and will even help you make your own

Framework, the modular laptop manufacturer, has announced a new wireless keyboard with an integrated touchpad designed for living room and simulation rig use. The Framework Wireless Touchpad Keyboard can be purchased as a complete unit or in individual component parts, maintaining the company’s philosophy of modular design and user customization.

The announcement came alongside the reveal of the Framework 13 Pro laptop, marking the company’s expansion beyond laptops into the peripheral market. This represents a notable diversification for Framework, which has built its reputation on creating user-repairable and customizable computing devices.

The integrated trackpad suggests the keyboard is designed as a complete input solution for environments where traditional mouse and keyboard setups may be impractical, such as entertainment systems or gaming/racing simulation rigs. By offering both pre-assembled and component-based purchasing options, Framework extends its core commitment to user control and DIY customization into the peripheral space. This approach allows customers to build their own keyboards and potentially replace or upgrade individual components as needed.
