Description

The second version of my fully custom keyboard.

README

Custom Keyboard V2

This repository contains KiCad design files for a home-made custom keyboard.

Current State

IMPORTANT: Although the keymap reference sheet (./keymap/keymap-exported.pdf) mentions a "Stenotype mode", this is not yet implemented. The rest of the keyboard should be fully functioning though.

Key Features

• Support for both QWERTY and Dvorak layouts
• Stenography support (WIP)
• 128x64 OLED display
  • WPM counter
  • Visual indicators for caps lock, num lock, and scroll lock, as well as layers
• RGB lighting with cool animations

Repository Layout

• ./circit_board = KiCad design files
• ./kicad-libs = Third party libraries that KiCad can use
• ./keymap = Reference sheet of this keyboard's layout (NOTE: keymap-inkscape.svg will only show both pages properly when opened with Inkscape. If you don't want to download Inkscape, please see keymap-exported.pdf instead)

QMK Firmware

This repository just contains the KiCad design files. For the firmware, see my fork of QMK.

IMPORTANT: Within the fork, the firmware for this keyboard will be located in dev_branch, not the default master branch and will be under the folder keyboards/custom_keyboard_v2.
