## Layer 0: QWERTY - `_QW`
Standard QWERTY layout, with three QMK features:
- The `Menu` key has been replaced by `MO(_FW)`, which moves to my Windows Fn layer when held.
- The `Caps Lock` key has been replaced with a dual function `LT()` key, which opens the Windows Fn layer when held, and is `Caps Lock` when tapped
- The `Escape` key has been replaced with a `KC_GESC` `` ` ~ `` key when used with a `Fn` key or a `Shift` key
###### For the rest of this readme, the physical location of keys will be referred to by their function in a US QWERTY layout.

[`KC_GESC`](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/feature_grave_esc) | `Esc` when tapped alone, `` ` ~ `` when used with a `Shift` or `GUI` key.
`LT(_FW, KC_CAPS)` | Opens the Windows Fn layer when held; toggles Caps Lock when tapped.

## Layer 1: Hardware Dvorak - `_DV`
### Accessed by holding either `Fn` and tapping `/?` key, then tapping `2@`.
A hardware-based Dvorak Simplified layout. At my weekend job, I use a shared computer that runs MacOS Sierra, in US QWERTY layout. In this layer, I can leave the system in QWERTY, plug my keyboard in, and still type in Dvorak.
