mechanical keyboard
Is the mechanical keyboard right choice for programming?
The answer is both yes and no. Yes, if you want a durable keyboard with a crisp
feedback and want to get rid of that mushy feeling from those membrane keyboards
then surely you can go for this. With that being said, these will slow you
down at first as you need to press each key farther than the normal membrane
keyboard which will affect your speed and accuracy when starting out and if you
don't have the time to learn while working then refrain from buying this.
There are a lot of good membrane keyboards like the logitech mx keys which are
serious productivity boosting peripherals and for those who've been typing on
membrane keyboard for their entire lives, this keyboard (logitech mx keys) is a
fantastic upgrade.

Mechanical keyboards contain switches underneath the keycaps which when
pressed activates that particaular key.
There are mainly 3 types of switches: Clicky, Tactile, and Linear.
*Clicky switches* are what people mainly corelate with when getting into
mechanical keyboards as these create a sound/click when the key is pressed.
There is also a tactile feedback meaning you'll feel a bump on your finger
when you actuate the switch.
*Tactile switches* are similar to the clicky switches without the clicky sound.
As the name goes, these also have tactile feedback like the clicky switches.
People who game mainly prefer tactile switches as they give a physical feedback
when pressed. Getting this feedback means that the key has been activated.
*Linear Switches* are different from the above two switches. They don't give
any kind of feedback so the user needs to press the switch completely to make
sure that the switch is activated. One might think that these switches are
not good but these switches do not make any sound when pressed (the sound
of these switches from keyboard sound test videos aren't really the sound that
these switches are making, it is the sound of the keycap when the key bottoms
out and there is no space for the switch to further get pressed down.) so these
switches can be used in a noise sensitive place. People who program or type
mainly prefer these switches as these give a much smoother typing experience
than the clickys and the tactiles.
Thank you!
