Colemak Mod-DH layout for users keeping an azerty layout configuration on their OS.

Introduction

This keymap is for users keeping their operating systems configured with azerty - for typing passwords in their native languages, or for their laptop keyboard - but who wants a Colemak Mod-DH layout on their mechanical keyboard.

The symbols layers was done after analysing various programming languages sources codes and should be close to optimal for typing confort, see the link at the end of the README.

The design is done to minimize the usage of the pinky fingers and reduces stress on the hands, thus Alt and Ctrl keys are accessible for both hands.
