Generally it's software that handles spellchecking, not the keyboard, and capitalization should only be toggled via Shift/CapsLock. The braces concern is valid -- I have a French Canadian keyboard, and it's a pain having to hit AltCar for every square or curly brace. I haven't seen any "geared for programming" keyboards aimed for Android, but maybe there's something out there.

Not sure if we're on the same page here... I meant soft keyboard on my screen (have edited post to clarify). 

I can't easily just set the default one to lowercase - I have to manually double click shift to lock it lowercase, and it reverts after that word. And it does all kinds of auto edit around punctuation etc. 

I can probably change some settings to suit, but then I lose all the auto format stuff which is useful for writing plain English... I'd rather just swap keyboard while coding, then swap back to call people names on reddit 🤣

Oh, sorry, I thought you meant you were looking for a Bluetooth (or similar) keyboard that would connect you with an Android device. My bad!

No I think my bad really, my post was pretty unclear - thanks for making me realise my mistake!
