+# Aya
+
+![Aya](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DanNixon/aya/main/docs/both_sides.jpg)
+
+A column staggered, symmetrical split keyboard.
+
+* Keyboard Maintainer: [Dan Nixon](https://github.com/dannixon)
+* Hardware Supported: Aya PCB, Pro Micro
+* Hardware Availability: CAD files [here](https://github.com/DanNixon/aya)
+
+Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
+
+ make aya:default
+
+Enter the bootloader in 2 ways:
+
+* **Command**: Hold down both shift keys and press B
+* **Physical reset button**: Briefly short the pads on the read of the PCB (directly behind the Pro Micro)
+
+See the [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_build_tools) and the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_make_guide) for more information. Brand new to QMK? Start with our [Complete Newbs Guide](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/newbs).
