## Why is it specific to C# ## Why is it specific to C Sharp
I defined the characters priority based on their usage in C# language, most of this characters are also used in other coding languages but it may require some tweaking.

For example there is no direct access to ~ or $ keys which can be very common in some languages. For example there is no direct access to ~ or $ keys which can be very common in some languages.

## Issues ## Issues
One of the issues encountered while creating this layout was that I did not find a way to have a key to send a modifier on hold, and a key combination while pressed (e.g. I can't set a Key to do Save (Ctrl + S) when pressed and Shift modifier when hold ) One of the issues encountered while creating this layout was that I did not find a way to have a key to send a modifier on hold, and a key combination while pressed (e.g. I can't set a Key to do Save (Ctrl + S) when pressed and Shift modifier when hold )
