Nope

Just use the Helium fork. This project is dead.

The referenced project is https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard, for anyone who is curious. However, as mentioned in that project's documentation, glide typing is only available by linking in a closed-source library from Google, which is incompatible with OpenBoard's open-source policy. I guess nobody has invented an open-source glide typing library yet, but anything is possible in the future.

I am using Futo keyboard now!

I stand corrected. I have just purchased FUTO Keyboard (https://keyboard.futo.org/) and glide typing works out of the box. I haven't had that in years. There was little hesitation on my part as I am already a happy paid user of FUTO Voice Input, an excellent replacement for Google Speech Services.

That company seems to be doing some great work.
