Itās actually on a color spectrum. I can make it rainbow if I want 
I even have an external keyboard that I set up to have the different lighting zones flicker based off of the audio I play (I basically turned it into an audio visualizer)!

Anyways.
In other news, Iām dying from statistics 
Congratulations
now you will clean it for the first 30 days every day and take care of it carefully 
on my optical-mechanical keyboard
I can choose the color for each desired key, so I arranged how it suits me best and saved it in 6 settings depending on the mood
there are those disco things too - but it annoys and deconcentrates me, so I keep it off

My external keyboard only has zones, but my laptop is cherry mx and is per-key.
I did that with my keyboard (every week), and I still do (~1 year later)!
I carry my laptop in a backpack, so I hope the paint doesnāt flake off

even white is good compared to nothing
especially if you often work at night and in the dark
so be happy

My school chromebook has no backlight.
And hey, I actually got used to typing with it in the dark!
itās easy when display is close and it lights up the keyboard
I think RGB keyboards are most useful when playing some games
so you put a certain color on a certain key and you already know what to press when you need to
this mine also supports macro, etc.
so you can add āa program codeā to any key
and make it easier for you to write some HTML, JS, etc. ( automate everything)

Both my keyboards have macro, but the external only has function keys (so Iād have to be careful not to assign a macro to a function key/hotkey configuration that already has a purpose).
How so? Can you make it so it types (boilerplate) code for you?
My macros AFAIK only support typing and clicking sequences, but that might very well be enough. Still, I donāt (think I) need macros for coding because I rely on my (somewhat, actually pretty average for the coding/gaming community) fast typing skills.

it has a REC button on it as well as via software
and then whatever you type is recorded until you press stop.
I donāt use it too much because itās faster for me to make copy paste
rather than trying to remember where what was assigned to which key
It is more useful to someone who plays games
so pressing one key can do a bunch of e.g. some combos or more during a fight
and you better not do it
because those things especially the software behind it is often not tested enough
so it can happen that the PC will not boot
because the keyboard gives it silly inputs or series of letters instead of one
so the BIOS thinks itās a hardware error and doesnāt want to continue ,
but well, thatās probably a more common case with some cheaper variants.
we rely more on code completion here Ctrl + Space
there are fewer mistakes that way
How to become a regular member?
you need to come regularly for a while and be active in every sense
this is a list of conditions:
you only need the first one (to be here for a long time in days)
and you currently have 1 flag more than the allowed number to enter in regular

Ctrl + space completes code?
In what?
