How Keyboard Layout Detection Works

Keyboard layout detection analyzes the relationship between physical key codes and the characters they produce. Different layouts map keys differently: QWERTY has "Z" in the bottom left, AZERTY has "W" there, and QWERTZ has "Y" in the top row. By analyzing these mappings along with your browser's language settings, we can identify your layout. This information can be used for fingerprinting because it narrows down your locale and language preferences.
