I've been using ionic framework (https://ionicframework.com/), which uses cordova under the hood for interaction with the native side through the plugin system while allowing for code to be typescript/angular 2 based without moving too far from the Cordova I'm already familiar with.

It's pretty sweet and has sped up development on many fronts, but I'm also curious as to what others are using and why...

Nice work... I really like it and would definitely be willing to give it a shot (and even to build my own if necessary).

I think there are two important concerns that need to be addressed that I didn't notice in the post:

1) The chords used to specify a given key should be a fact-based decision, made using actual data concerning

  a) which keys are actually used most for a given target language  and

  b) which motions are actually least expensive/easiest with this system
so a sensible layout could be determined (like dvorak for classic keyboards); and

2) These things seem to keep your hands pretty busy... though I'd like to stick to only using a keyboard, and usually can 9x% of the time, I still _must_ use the mouse once in a while... so the mouse either must be integrated (as a trackball, motion sensor, or ?) or it must be easy to switch.

Have these aspects been considered/resolved?
