[Feature]: Keyboard

[Adriano429424]

Problem Statement

The keyboard is really nice and super cool but lacks some features and has some bugs. For example, I can't access emojis, the question mark is missing, and it's impossible to long-press for letters. Letter with an accent, not French language

Proposed Solution

Add French language support, improve suggestion and spell checker, add important symbols like question marks, and fix the emoji bug.Add the option to hide the number row on the keyboard and add a capital letter to the beginning of each sentence.

@Adriano429424 check #141 and maybe try adding extra ones there most of this issue seems like a duplicate I think you should close this to declutter the issues page and speed up the development:)

I think the keyboard is not only in easily stage but also experimental to see if it would work.
Personally, I really love the concept behind this keyboard. It's super Material Expressive with buttons and all, and what I loved the most was the introduction of curviness and inverse, which makes it look like if a keyboard just dropped in.
I second the lack of main common features, but I also see great potential! :D

Hi! I just finished my exams and presentations so sorry about the delay... The keyboard as mentioned not a primary feature at the moment due to the complexity of the implementation... But I will try to add most necessary features one by one as time goes starting with emojis.

I'm not sure about the multi language support at the moment as there's a lack of easy ways to implement auto correct and such. And also the animation and rendering of the overlay is kind of weird as well not allowing to behave like a regular jetpack compose UI. If you have seen the AirSync in-app keyboard, you might have seen the new Material Expressive animation for key presses but even with like 2 days of tries, I've never been able to add such cool animations... I might have to do some R&D.. let's see 😇

Also a problem is that no matter how hard I try I know it won't be as good as Gboard suggestions which I'm so used to 🥲

[frieza213]

I don't use the Gboard suggestions just basic autocorrect is good as well but even not having that is fine, I am used to desktop not autocorrecting like many people so not really an issue in that just the stability and experience of seeing and using it needs to be good
