The Lore

QFRL100 name was given by me (thebloodyez) to the project as a joke (or obviously I a bad at naming projects.

So what does Etar mean?

Etar(إطار) means in Arabic: whatever covers the outside of a thing, similar to a "border", reflecting both the keyboard engraving design language and its cultural roots to the designer. The name pays homage to the beauty of Arabic architecture and calligraphy, much like the V1 Arch did.
For those familiar with my work, this theme isn’t new as I always try to add some details of things that impacted me.
