Keycap Essentials Guide
Keycap Materials: PBT vs. ABS
PBT: Durable and heat-resistant. It features a matte texture and won't develop a greasy "shine" even after long-term use.
ABS: Offers vibrant colors and a smooth touch. However, it is softer and prone to becoming shiny/greasy over time.

Keycap Profiles: Shape and Height
Cherry / OEM: Sculpted heights and angles for ergonomic comfort; the most common standard for typing and gaming.
XDA / DSA: Uniform height across all rows. They offer a clean, flat, and retro aesthetic but may require time to get used to.

Keycap Legends: Printing Techniques
Double-shot: Two layers of plastic are molded together. The legends are permanent and will never fade or wear off.
