overview

this is a modified version of let's split keyboard from bbaserdem. i don't like standard dvorak overuses right pinky so i shifted the columns out. i'm not sure if this is any good, time will tell.

i have ortholinear let's split eh, which share a lot of functions with other ortholinear keyboards.

layout

i use dvorak with an unorthodox off layout. if you wanna grab my code, and you used a layout with a persistent base layer change, change it to layer 0 before proceeding.

layers

• dvorak: base layer,with dvorak layout.
• alternative: has alternate characters.
• game: toggled from function, comfortable for gaming use.
• numeric: has numericals and symbols. can be locked.
• function: layer has media and function keys.
• mouse: manipulates mouse. can be locked.
• music allows playing sounds.

functionality

• rgb backlight: with layer indication, and ability to change base layer lighting mode.
• secrets: by placing a secrets.h, and not tracking it, passwords can be stored.
• mouse: mouse emulation, complete with diagonal keys.
• turkish: an altgr-like overlay that allows some non-common letters, in unicode.

i suggest checking out how i enabled turkish keys, how i planned out rgb lighting, and my mouse implementation; they might offer some insight into fringe user cases.

issues

all features are too big for the 32kb bootloader. offenders are audio and rgb lights; it comes down to one or the other.

~the proton board, and rev 6 might fix that.~
