There aren't many DIY keyboard parts/shops in my european country (at least I couldn't find one), but I found GMMK keyboard in a local (mostly online tho) shop. Is it a good pick? Will it allow me to freely rebuild it with other parts (even pcb)? How is it with software and features? Does it lack any featuers I may not know I may need (I never have used so small keyboard, my current one is TKL)?

I have a GMMK Pro and it's a solid board. You can certainly rebuild it with new parts and many people will recommend you swap out the stock stabilizers ASAP but I think you'll have a harder time with the PCB since they're generally manufactured to fit precisely within that particular case. GMMK Software is kinda dog shit last time I tried to use it but it's been a few years.
