This national keyboard is different of course but how about qwertz?
It seems that Croatian (QWERTZ) and Slovenian keyboard layouts are exactly the same (didn't kew that till now ). That other (national) layout is something I've never seen before and I'm using Croatian keyboards for almost twenty years .

I tried making full variant of the keyboard with additional keys but (at least for me) usability is much lower so I decided to use accents for extra characters (as it is on Android and iOS keyboards too).
