Description

@AdamRoden Hi Adam. I received an email from @Hizoul who has created an excellent online dynamic keyboard editing tool: https://github.com/Hizoul/optikey-boardlayout

I've included some screenshots below. Can you take a look and see what could be added so that all functionality is covered. I will then work with him to flesh out the tool. Thank you!

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked optikey-boardlayout tool and its screenshots, then compare its functions with OptiKey's existing keyboard customisation capabilities. Identify missing functionality and agree on a concrete scope before implementation; done means the required coverage is defined and the tool's supported workflows are accounted for.
