Arm amputee programmer here. There are some wild hardware solutions out there.
What I found best was
- a standard qwerty keyboard (I didn't want to be restricted to custom keyboards)
- A learning program called Five Finger Typist. https://www.spectronics.com.au/product/five-finger-typist-2-...
Basically I'm hybrid touch typing. Because I cover the whole keyboard as I type the chance for error increases the longer I type. I quickly glance to know where i'm aligned.
In hindsight I should have learnt to use the F and J notches more.
I have extensively remapped my IDE shortcuts to be easier to trigger.
