Hi there! I hope we can help out! There are a few small community shops that sell prebuilt dactyls but it’ll depend where about in the world you are? There’s also the Kenesis boards which are prebuilt.
Couple of miss apprehensions here. “Pulse” is just a colour way created by a designer who has done runs with a couple of key cap manufacturers. GMK is well known a key cap manufacturer that make Cherry profile key caps and have done a Pulse run in the past. MT3 is a Drop profile.
So if you want cherry, you’ll need to find a GMK set or some clones on Aliexpress
I like it! I love the use of one shots and TD to get to multiple layers. I’m on a Corne w ZMK
One thing I took advantage of was having Esc on my thumb for Vim. Here’s my (undocumented, sorry) repo, albeit in zmk i case there’s anything there for inspiration. github.com/allymparker/zmk-config-unified
