Have a question about this project? Use the Sticky! If you open the file you should be able to see some comments describing what to change. For Homebrew users, it is also available as a Cask: This commit does not belong to any branch on this repository, and may belong to a fork outside of the repository. I understand @tmk's desire to control everything, and keep everything up to his standards. @flabbergast Thanks for the info regarding ARM! Ctrl+A macro that overrides A and doesnt send it). A tag already exists with the provided branch name. Written mainly in JavaScript but also contains quite a bit of PHP and Shell code as well. The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives. Does not currently support layers, but that is coming soon. But don't worry, for Teensy 3.2 you just need to modify the rules.mk file. Even the ones that are basically impossible to trigger on a physical keyboard (e.g. But I haven't had any test reports for my latest fixes yet. And to finish off, some things to look forward to in the coming months. However, the recommended method is using a Dockerfile. But its petty dope as it is, not gonna lie. Im building a Planck whenever drop ships it and I dont mind editing the keymap.c file, but am interested in this as well! Therefore I have been thinking of the option to move to the QMK firmware instead. I would actually like to add support for PC at some point quite shortly afterwards. Please They also contain Makefiles and source files which might not be compatible with both keyboards. In the process I hope to learn how to update/edit the firmware myself, and produce custom LED visualizations. Juicy technical updates from the engineers at Input Club. The goal of this subreddit is to provide daily links to interesting mechanical keyboard content. One cool feature of the SAM4S is the built-in bootloader SAM-BA. Learn more. Yeah check the docs, it's just a flag to be compiled into QMK (I think..). However, to fully utilize the RGBness of the K-Type a high frame rate required using the majority of the CPU time servicing animationsinstead of scanning for keypresses. If that path is chosen, I would start by moving the mbed sdk to the chosen location. This is extra tricky due to the hotswap pcb needing to be braced against the steel plate without having any switches inserted. This repo contains the KLL compiler source code. Inventor of KLL, main firmware engineer for Input Club, keyboard collector, measurer of force curves, Hako/Halo switch inventor and designer of keyboards at Input Club. Otherwise confusion ensues :). Features A "keymap" can be configured in Ruby which is a concise, readable and happy language RP2040 is the target platform microcontroller The community encompasses all sorts of input devices, such as keyboards, mice, and MIDI devices. Written for the infinity and infinity ergodox keyboards, Support for Teensy 2 (partial), Teensy 2.0++, Teensy 3.0, Teensy 3.1, aims to be easy to use as the name suggests, Compatible with a wide range of keyboards/PCBs, for example Costar replacements controllers, JD40, various Duck keyboards, Phantom, Very terse, abstract keyboard layout and wiring description, Uses C++17 templates to generate the code for your firmware, Set the output pins (typically columns) and the input pins (typically rows), Loop across the matrix, turning on one output pin and reading each input pin, Using the row/column position of the key, decide what to do (send keypress, change layers, whatever), If a key was pressed, add it to the buffer, When the whole matrix has been read, send the buffer over USB. @fredizzimo I would love to help out here. Keyboard users have been confined by the different kinds of keyboard layouts companies have introduced to the market. It's built on top of QMK (maybe the same people?). I uploaded it with the TeensyLoader. The difference is the bootloader and the connections. By default on most VIA-supported keyboards, there is a limit of 4 layers. These are generally released around the same time as the case. It should support anything that is supported by the. But after the tmk_core split it has become even worse, since all new features goes into the tmk_keyboard repository first, and then perhaps after several months, tmk_core gets them. The Ergodox EZ has the typical "Teensy reset switch" which provides this behavior. Follow this tutorial to learn how. If youre looking to get everything in one: wireless, QMK/VIA enabled, customizable, hot-swappable, budget-friendly, and more, you may want to consider the Keychron K Pro series (including K2 Pro, K6 Pro, K8 Pro, etc.) In Master you should be able to run make -f Makefile.3.2 inside teensy_lc_onekey and in the Personal branch you can find "totoroboard" that is my keyboard with teensy 3.2. Linked animations (using animations as triggers). Only the second command is strictly needed, but the first one will make sure that everything is up to date in case the repository locations are changed. I have some experience with writing layouts for tmk and qmk and compared to these, the Kiibohd firmware either lacks a lot of functionality or doesn't make it . I like that idea! Originally started by matt3o for the WhiteFox keyboard, KiiConf is the web-based configuration utility for our keyboards. If you want to use the teensyduino IDE, Matt30's guide may be way more complicated than you need. I think other keyboards will have the same need to share keymaps between different boards, EG if/when the planck is released with a different mcu (like the at90usb1286.). A quite powerful processor is also required, depending on what kind of visualisations you want to do. Has tools that make it easy to modify the layout. In his quest for quality, he rewrites code about just as much as HaaTa does . The RTOS kernel doesn't have to be actually used for TMK/QMK, but it offers some nice features IMO (so TMK uses it the way it's written now). Contains some small updates for the Kinetis mk20dx256vlh7 MCU as well as some additional debugging used in manufacturing. ChibiOS and Infinity Ergodox support for QMK, Add both Ergodox EZ and Infinity Ergodox as sub-projects of Ergodox, Swiss German layout for Ergodox EZ & Infinity, https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/ergodox_infinity. When a keyboard is backlit the LEDs are typically controlled by the firmware as well. Awesome! I'm not familiar with mbed either. And none of them has even got a single comment by @tmk. The major feature left to implement in KLL 0.5 is state-scheduling (e.g. Do you have the file bootloader_defs.h in your directory? There's no final conclusion though, but for now I would suggest to put it in the handwired folder. First off, introductions of the team are in order. The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives. Already on GitHub? You can try manually setting it with -bl dfu (if it is a DFU microcontroller). Not only does it give you an indication on which expressions are having issues, it also provides developers with more information on what the problem actually is (the trickiest part when reporting a bug is providing enough relevant and detailed information to actually solve the issue). Since most of the QMK/VIA compatible keyboards are not wireless enabled. Now I will get even less work done as I seek out that perfect layout. Furthermore I have added an visualization emulator for the Infinity Ergodox that can be run from Windows. No B2B Commercial services or Donation Crowdfunding. The firmware is for the most part QMK with the VIA_ENABLE feature enabled. Really though, all this work was done in order to prepare for state scheduling testing (also known as short/long press or tap keys). For example by making the drivers more generic, like this pull request. If I had one suggestion for VIA, it would be the ability to print a reference to my layers to stick on the wall! This guide from pjrc may also be a good place to get started. Hi folks, let me know if you need any help with ChibiOS-related things (but I think Fred knows things better than me by now). Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. Basically like the software that you'd get with gaming keyboards that allows you to change what keys do, only better because it's QMK. If nothing happens, download GitHub Desktop and try again. I like the refactoring changes in tmk_core#19 and would merge that, but I'd like to reserve the right to make some other big refactoring changes myself in the future :) exactly what that entails, I'm not sure at this time. The first would be, auto-downloading of dfu-util binaries. But it seems like it was very experimental in the TMK firmware too, with only the onekey and the Infinity 60% supported. Maybe newer versions are required. Maybe the wiring is different or something? In order to get it to work, you will still need to flash a VIA enabled firmware file onto your board. It also has many features as QMK (RGB, BLE, split keyboards), so I really recommend giving it a try if you're into more DIY stuff. Referral/affiliate links, subreddits ads, begging, and low-effort posts will be removed. So, if someone wants to at least somewhat support different manufacturers, there are basically 2 choices these days: ChibiOS and mbed. Written mainly in C (firmware) and Python (algorithms and web interaction). I'm happy owner of Ergodox EZ and have a fork with custom layout and now I received Ergodox Infinity from Massdrop. I also have an Ergodox Infinity from Massdrop, and would like to test. It contains the code for the upcoming automated Zadig driver installation (no more messing with Zadig!). The reason why this compiles faster is because it uses your entire CPU. The easiest would definitely be this though: Maybe we can go that route for now, and work on combining them in the future. This is a collection of flashing tools packaged into one app. A modular community keyboard firmware for everyone. I'll try to make as independent changes as possible, with several smaller pull requests rather than one big bang of everything. The Infinity version would probably use it's own visualizer though. All of the keyboards released by Keebio so far have QMK support, and Keebio is involved with the QMK organization as a collaborator. I love using via for my macropad but it'd be even better if I could set the lighting based on what's active right now. Are there any parts that you feel shouldn't be done? The KLL compiler supports multiple emitters. About chibios: it really has 2 different (and more-less usable independently) parts: a HAL (which is the more important aspect for TMK/QMK) and a real-time operating system (RTOS). Periodic and polling, respectively. The second is automating the Zadig driver installation. The way I had previously done it was with the QMK Configurator which is very cool, you use the GUI to edit the keymap, it compiles to a new .hex (firmware) that you flash to the keyboard using the QMK Toolbox. Input Club Kono Store Input Club Engineering Blog SF Bay Area Meetup Mailing List Images and Videos Flickr (includes G+ Photos) Imgur YouTube Projects and Documents Plotly - Force Curves! Zadig is a great tool, but why cant it just be done for you (like on macOS and Linux) and just work. Anyway, I will start the real porting now, as I have started my summer vacation, although at least the first week will be busy with other things as well. All of the releases (including release notes) can be found on GitHub. It serves as the default firmware for all OLKB boards, the Clueboard line, and the Ergodox EZ, and is always looking to add more to the list! He keeps PCB fabs on their toes with his stringent manufacturing checklist (weve qualified a lot more pcb fabs than wed care to admit here at Input Club ). Copyright 2023 Keebio. Yes those makefiles comes straight from the TMK and haven't been modifyed so they should probably be deleted. QMK/VIA is literally the Holy Grail of keyboard customization with infinite possibilities.The VIA configurator allows users to intuitively remap any key on the keyboard, and create numerous macro commands, shortcuts, or key combinations for your keyboard. The review process would probably be a bit tighter than other pull requests, but otherwise there shouldn't be any difference. The next thing would be to have the LCDs working. VIA is like the QMK toolbox, a GUI application, but the firmware changes are instantly pushed to the keyboard. These are useful for triggering off of things such as CapsLock and NumLock. So the engineering team here at Input Club is going to start publishing monthly updates on what weve been working on! Not that I have any say in this, but I'd personally prefer ChibiOS as a submodule - the main repo is 130MB (out of which 47MB is .git), and given that majority of people won't actually use it {of course you can prune it quite a lot, but then it's going to be more difficult to pull the upstream changes}. Two comments about the above things: Infinity 60% is already done also with Chibios. Which functionality is not working? Be careful to not Brick your keyboard! @fredizzimo have you confirmed that this works for Teensy 3.2's? :-) Just saying. Also note that ChibiOS and ChibiOS-Contrib are already included here as subprojects, and should automatically be synced with Thank you, @fredizzimo :). If the keyboard is qmk compatible but its not in the vias compatible list, can you enable it anyway? Customizing the firmware on your keyboard will give you a greater level of control over exactly what every key does. Sign in Another recent change was classifying some capabilities as thread-safe. So before starting to work on this, I'm asking what do you think? In my case, i just flashed that .hex and loaded VIA. I don't think TMK and QMK coming to together really makes sense though - our repos have pretty different goals. The QMK Documentation page is pretty expansive, and tries to document all features available. This is where VIA steps in. I had ordered an EZ and the Infinity around the same time, the EZ showed up first so I did a lot of work on getting the Vagrantfile for easy compiling on Windows/Linux/OSX setup, but now I've traded that off and am using an Infinity, and I have the new USB-C model on order as well. The biggest challenge moving the Infinity Ergodox support to the QMK firmware is that there's no support for ChibiOS at the moment. Posts advocating for or posting the links of Counterfeits / IP Infringing Content will be removed. However I still haven't had time to properly fix the LCD and LED support(currently the right hand LCD stays on constantly while the left is dark). Recent commits have higher weight than older ones. TMK (where QMK was derived from late 2014) was started back in 2010 by hasu and the kiibohd controller firmware, by HaaTa, early 2011. Dead simple, currently less than 100 lines in a single file. Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub.Growth - month over month growth in stars. Why QMK/VIA is one of the most essential features for a custom keyboard? In the ideal world I would like to see that QMK and TMK are joined together. Travis-CI is used, in combination with docker, to make sure releases keep on working! DIY keyboards using a Teensy, Pro Micro, or other microcontroller are fully customizable. Stop. So far, I'm leaning to using QMK with the Infinity Ergodox, even though it looks like I can't use the LCD (which was one of the main reasons to get the Input Club version, but meh). Here is a brief rundown on what your code actually needs to do. But since we have plenty of time to think about that, I won't go through them now. Thanks for your work on this @fredizzimo. I just tried moving the infinity60 rules.mk file to a teensy3.2 layout setup. Adding VIA support to a keyboard is not particularly straight forward, but if you are interested in doing so and have good working knowledge of QMK, checkout MechMerlin's videos on his efforts to add VIA support to various boards. go to the QMK site and read the instructions for doing it via the command line). I have had slightly too big ambitions with the visualization support, and not much time to actually program it, so it has taken way longer than planned. The wiki also has details on how to build a bootloader flashing adapter which is useful if youre trying to manufacture your own pcb. VIA consists of two parts: Firmware and VIA Configurator. Input Clubs pcb are designed by Parak using KiCad. Compilation is possible and tested on Windows/Linux/macOS. I just want unicode support/custom shift keys. BOSSA is a tool used to flash MCUs with the SAM-BA integrated bootloader which will be used for manufacturing of SAM4S keyboards. KiCad can be used to view the schematics, layout and gerbers (though we recommend gerbv on Windows and Linux for viewing gerbers). He has all sorts of cool things planned out for the desktop configurator all in the name of R, G and B. But for me as a contributor, it's an almost impossible situation, as I see so much potential, but I'm unable to do anything about it. ChibiOS will be added as a submodule, at least initially, as that way it won't grow the repository size, and we can always move to subtrees later. The other large project going on right now is preparing the firmware for Kira. Open Source is very important to Input Club . Kiibohd firmware modules written in Rust and can be used with C FFI Rust 15 Apache-2.0 3 10 0 Updated Apr 16, 2023. kiibohd-firmware Public Kiibohd Firmware - Successor to kiibohd/controller Rust 18 Apache-2.0 4 8 0 Updated Mar 24, 2023. controller Public Kiibohd Controller But the big thing is that the tmk_core doesn't support the customization point that I need. QMK/VIA Support; Double-Gasket design; Full-metal body; South-facing RGB; PBT keycaps; Screw-in Stabilizers; Upgraded typing resonance Scroll to the right for more model comparison. For those that are not familiar, firmware is compiled software that is stored on a non-volatile device (like inside a keyboards flash storage). Kiibohd Controller. This would allow for adding unit tests, and also making an emulator on the PC side. It's also possible to destroy the eeprom, by having some kind of weird bug that continuously writes there. Hardware and software maker community based around ortholinear or ergonomic keyboards and QMK firmware. I was also planning to get rid of the mbed specific common.mk file, as it's almost the same as the common.mk file in the tmk_core directory, and otherwise ChibiOS would have yet another variant. So were now one more step closer to achieving full KLL 0.5 support. Official QMK Configurator tool. For the K-Type (and LED support) the KLL compiler was entirely rewritten as a multi-staged parsing compiler. JSON is used by both the configurator/KiiConf as well as host-side KLL to gather more information that is available to the KLL compiler, but not the final output generated by the KLL compiler. But that would of course be a bit of a hassle for the users, and maybe even cause merge conflicts, since the location changes. Which the configurator backend then uses to generate a firmware bundle. The Toolbox also listens to HID messages on usage page 0xFF31 and usage 0x0074, compatible with PJRC's hid_listen. For both the one key and your "totoroboard". If you run into any issues with "Device not found" when flashing, then you may need to use Zadig to fix the issue. Do remember that for drivers Win32 vs. x64 really does matter. Were hard-at-work on both the next prototype case and pcb revisions (with big news in less than a week!). The Infinity Ergodox interconnect runs at 4.5 megabaud. I didn't change much code and I used TeensyLoader selecting the ch.hex inside the /build directory. That is a really basic overview, but should at least get you started. I have already described some of the major problems I have with the TMK development here. Doing a subtree sounds good - I'm not too worried about repo size. Appveyor is used to generated automated builds. Also note that the chibios_test "keyboard" has the structure for keyboards with subprojects, which is needlessly complex to serve as an example. Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Ergodox Infinity from Massdrop for quality, he rewrites code about just much!
