You can look up studies, most say that the coleman layout is more efficient, finger travel and what not. I haven’t used either one, so I was just putting out some snark.
I don’t know if I’d call it ‘more intelligent’, but Colemak maintains most Windows hotkeys which imo makes it easier to use as anything but a typist. It also natively supports all diacritics, which Dvorak doesn’t.
The fundamental difference is that Dvorak focuses on alternating hands pressing keys while Colemak focuses on avoiding same-finger key presses while keeping the fingers on the home row as much as possible. You can read more about it on the official site.
I’ve used QWERTY, Dvorak, and Colemak and Colemak is by far my favorite.
Just curious. Why is Coleman considered to be a more intelligent Dvorak?
I use colemak and its really easy to learn from a lifetime of qwerty.
