There are multiple layers that can be accessed by pressing a modifier key. Like how you would press shift to type a symbol instead of a number, but for every key. And you can have multiple layers too.

You can program the firmware however you want. Many people don’t even use QWERTY. You can design the layers however you want so that you can remember them without labels.
