Overview
My QMK home. I feel as though I stand on the shoulders of giants, for a lot of my code here is borrowed and adapted from so many contributors here, and that I hope my code here can help or inspire others.
Layers, Handlers, and Macros
Layers
I have some predefined layer names for keyboards:
- _BASE: Default Layer, QWERTY layout.
- _FN1: Function Layer for 60% and above, and additional macros and shortcuts on 50% and below.
- _LOWER and _RAISE: Function layers for 40%
and macropads:
- _REEDER: Shortcuts for Reeder.app, my RSS feed reader
- _MEDIA: Media controls
- _NAVI: Navigation macros, for changing tabs and scrolling
- _KARABINER: Generic macro keys, meant to be customized per app with Karabiner
Protected Layers
I have some named "protected" layers, meant to be at the end of the layer list for changing keyboard settings and features.
- KEYMAP_LAYERS: Add additional layers in keymap.
- _AUDIO: Audio feature controls.
- _LIGHT: RGB Light/Matrix feature controls.
- _ADJUST: General keyboard settings and toggles. Can also contain RGB and Audio controls on larger boards that don't need and extra layer for those controls.
EEPROM User Config
I have a custom userspace config implemented to save settings on the board to persist across shutdowns. I currently store:
- rgb_layer_change - a toggle for using RGB themes for layer indication
- rgb_theme - a pointer to the currently set RGB Theme
Process Handlers
Keycode Aliases
I am a macOS user and so a lot of my aliases are
