Apple keyboard for a developer? [closed]

I am using a Mac Mini for both everyday tasks and developing software. I don't feel the original keyboard layout to develop on Mac is the right one.

"Perhaps you should change the keyboard to ""US English"" for the time you are writing code. The key to the immediate right of the ""P"" gives me ""["". The same key gives me ""^"" in the French.

You can go to ""International"" in the system preferences, and check keyboard layouts that you wish to use in the ""Input Menu"" tab. Make sure ""Show input menu in menu bar"" is selected.

You can then switch between layouts by selecting the layout in the toolbar. (The flag in the toolbar has a dropdown menu to choose.)"
