Panda Zhuyin

Panda Zhuyin — steady bopomofo and Taiwanese typing. A keyboard that packs 37 bopomofo symbols into a few large keys: tap for the center, flick four directions for the rest. Every key is "center + four directions" — wherever you tap or flick, you get one definite sound. Inspired by Japanese flick keyboards. Initials on the left, medials in the middle, finals on the right — following bopomofo's own structural grouping, so there is nothing new to memorize. Mandarin only uses 412 actual syllables, so impossible combinations are grayed out. Each key big enough you won't tap the wrong one.
