What is SpaceFN and why you should give it a try
The SpaceFN concept - setting up your space key as a layer switch when held - is probably one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby. Let me explain how it works. My SpaceFN article on kbd.news made some rounds recently - quite surprisingly given the age of this concept. This piece you're reading is a condensed version of the full post. If you're left with unanswered questions, you'll most likely find the info you're looking for in the original write-up. On my imaginary top list of the most useful keyboard features, tweaks and hacks, SpaceFN would deserve a podium finish for sure. But what makes it so special? In short: SpaceFN is easy to implement, easy to learn, costs nothing, can be used with any keyboard, and can improve your productivity instantly. I will list its benefits below, but can state right at this point that the SpaceFN concept, setting up your space key as a layer switch when held, is clearly one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby....

I was also lookin for a ISO rainbow keycaps set for my Ducky Shine 2/3 ISO/Nordic k-boards last year but nothing.
To solve this problem I bought a ANSI k-board (number 4 it is on way now).
You can use the ISO Pink Big Enter + ISO small Left Shift from this set and then buy a ANSI Rainbow keycaps set from Massdrop or AliExpress and replace the ANSI Enter and ANSI Left Shift with the ISO Big Enter + ISO Left Shift.
I did this with the White Ducky k-board on picture above.
Not lookin good but I can use a rainbow keycaps set on my ISO k-board if I want.
The problem is that you have to buy 2 keycaps sets instead of one set.
