Use second USB-C as port for other devices #190

There are two USB-C ports on the keyboard. One on each half. One is used to connect the board to the PC and another one is free. Is it somehow possible to use the free one to connect any other devices like flash drives or phone charger?

Not without extensive hardware and firmware modifications. The "easiest" approach would be implementing a USB hub. The Drop keyboards are an example of this.
