To define your own keymap create a folder with the name of your keymap in the keymaps folder, and see keymap documentation (you can find in top readme.md) and existant keymap files. - -To build the firmware binary hex file with a keymap just do `make` with a keymap like this: - -``` -$ make [default|jack|<name>] -``` - -Keymaps follow the format **__keymap.c__** and are stored in folders in the `keymaps` folder, eg `keymaps/my_keymap/` |
