Expanded Comparison Table for Urik #111

Description

@maninthemiddle01

I propose expanding the comparison to include additional noteworthy keyboards, such as Urik, which has become quite usable for German-speaking users.

Here is a draft of what this expanded table could look like:

Feature Urik
Gesture Typing in Termux
Gesture/Swipe Typing ✅ Geometric
Multi-Language Swipe⁹ ✅ (Simultaneous)
Gesture Engine Open Source
ML Training Code Public N/A (Geometric)
Model Size N/A
APK Size ~40 MB
Clipboard History ✅ Encrypted
Short-Swipe Actions⁸ ⚠️ Space/Del only
Per-Key Customization
Custom Layouts
DIY Theme Creator
Word Suggestions
No Internet Access
License ✅ GPL-3

Key Details for the Feature Request Body:

  • Gesture Engine: Urik uses a geometric path matching engine (traditional algorithm) rather than a neural network, so it has no ML model to train (N/A for ML columns).
  • Short-Swipe Actions: Unlike CleverKeys' per-key flick support, Urik currently limits gesture shortcuts to the Spacebar (cursor control) and Backspace (delete word).
  • German Support: Excellent support with native QWERTZ layouts and simultaneous multilingual spell-checking.
