Programmer Dvorak

Programmer Dvorak keyboard
Download

The Programmer Dvorak extension offers a specialized keyboard layout designed for programmers, enhancing typing efficiency on Chrome OS devices. After installation, users can activate the layout by navigating to chrome://settings/languages, adding English (US), and selecting the "Programmer Dvorak" option. If the option doesn't appear immediately, signing out and retrying usually resolves the issue.

Switch between keyboard layouts effortlessly using Alt+Shift until the Programmer Dvorak layout, marked by the symbol SV*, appears. Note that there is a known issue affecting versions prior to Chrome OS 37, with a recommended workaround detailed at crbug.com/397143. By installing this extension, users agree to Google's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, ensuring compliance and security.
