Do any of you program on non-US keyboard layouts? - eviltoast

I’ve used a US-QWERTY keyboard layout my entire life. I’ve seen other layouts that do things like reduce the size of the enter/backspace keys, move the pipe operator (|) and can’t wrap my head around how I would code on those.

What are your experiences? Are there any layouts that you prefer for coding over US English? Are there any symbols that you have a hard time reaching ($ for example)?

    This PT-BR keyboard layout is a mess, a mix between the US layouts and the PT-PT one. That’s why you’ve less than convenient brackets and curly braces. Frankly I see no reason why there’s still this two layouts for the same language. Can’t we just agree on some mix of PT-BR and PT-PT?
