KEYDIR exists to:
- Help Indian keyboard enthusiasts discover trusted vendors
- Reduce dependency on scattered Discord links
- Improve ecosystem transparency
- Document the India mechanical keyboard scene

- Separate keyboard and mouse/deskpad vendor sections
- Vendors selling both categories will appear in both using tags
- Better filtering for accessories, switches, keycaps, and deskpads
- Vendor last-verified dates
- Group buy tracker
