@flashymittens Here is the Gboard layout for Chuvash:
Й У Ӳ К Е Ӗ Н Г Ш З Х
Ф Ы В А Ӑ П Р О Л Д Э
Я Ч С Ҫ М И Т Ь Ю
It seems like this layout needs long presses to type a few letters (like long press В = Б). This seems inconvenient so I would like to suggest this layout instead:
Ё Ӑ Ӗ Ҫ Ӳ Ъ
Й Ц У К Е Н Г Ш Щ З Х
Ф Ы В А П Р О Л Д Ж Э
Я Ч С М И Т Ь Б Ю
Putting the extra letters on the side would probably make the keys too small and confuse the muscle memory of people who are used to the Russian layout, so I suggest this. Which layout is better in your opinion?
@tenextractor If possible, I'd prefer the 2nd one, so all letters will be visible. Long-tapping is pretty inconvenient when done frequently.
@flashymittens
This was the layout I added, please feel free to give any suggestions or corrections.
@tenextractor Looks great to me 🙂

Why do you want this feature?
It's my native language and I'd like to write in it.
