Futo is open source. It’s not FOSS though.

The positive aspects are that it’s highly customizable and supports a large number of language addons. The downside is that development is pretty much dead, the swipe feature not being very accurate and the autocorrect only working in English. There’s also a large amount of inconveniences and minor bugs that made it tedious to use in comparison to Futo.
I used AnySoft Keyboard until someone recommended Futo here on Lemmy. It’s been my daily driver for a couple of months now and I have to agree: It’s the best Open Source keyboard around, even if it’s technically still in alpha. It’s ridiculously good, even with languages other than English. It will nail German 20-character compound words first try and I haven’t seen any other keyboard do it this well.
