Are you aware of switches.mx? It's open source.

I did a good market research before development, so I've missed switches.mx, but it did come up later when I was looking for specs to one of the switches.

Switches.mx is a good overall site, I really like the design. Seems like we are focusing on the same specs of the switches. However, there are so difference between my vision and what switches.mx offers:

  1. switches.mx feels slow. It's a PHP website, so it needs a server. AnySwitch is entirely statically generated
  2. switches.mx focuses more on regular profile, mx switches. I plan to have all the switches, including low profile, and different stem types like Topre or Choc.
  3. Switches.mx is a database that you can search. My vision is to eventually include a comparison option as well as list of similar switches (based on specs heuristic)

But yeah, switches.mx is great otherwise!
