## How to flash

### Enter bootloader

The DFU state in the bootloader can be accessed in 3 ways:

* **Bootmagic reset**: Hold down the key at (0,0) in the matrix (usually the top left key or Escape) and plug in the keyboard
* **Physical reset button**: press the button on the front of the PCB, next to caps lock, for at least five seconds
* **Keycode in layout**: Press the key mapped to `RESET` if it is available (ESC key at layer 1 in the default layout)

## Compile firmware

After accessing the DFU state in your PCB, build the default layout using:

    make mode/m80v1/m80h:default # Hotswap
    make mode/m80v1/m80s:default # Soldered

Then download the resulting binary `*bin` file using `dfu-util` or QMK Toolbox.

## Compile and flash

After accessing the DFU state in your PCB, you can compile-and-flash automatically usind `dfu-util` through

    make mode/m80v1/m80h:default:flash # Hotswap
    make mode/m80v1/m80s:default:flash # Soldered
