Add an emphasis on QMK MSYS terminal (#21168)
* Add an emphasis on QMK MSYS terminal

Not using MSYS terminal is a frequent user error. This change
adds an additional statement to guide users to run the first
command in MSYS itself. Edited the same statement for consistency
in the other OSes.

* Update instructions for the other operating systems

Quantum Mechanical Keyboard Firmware

What is QMK Firmware?

QMK (Quantum Mechanical Keyboard) is an open source community centered around developing computer input devices. The community encompasses all sorts of input devices, such as keyboards, mice, and MIDI devices. A core group of collaborators maintains QMK Firmware, QMK Configurator, QMK Toolbox, qmk.fm, and this documentation with the help of community members like you.

Get Started

?> Basic QMK Configurator
User friendly graphical interfaces, no programming knowledge required.

?> Advanced Use The Source
More powerful, but harder to use.

Make It Yours

QMK has lots of features to explore, and a good deal of reference documentation to dig through. Most features are taken advantage of by modifying your keymap, and changing the keycodes.

Need help?

Check out the support page to see how you can get help using QMK.

Give Back

There are a lot of ways you can contribute to the QMK Community. The easiest way to get started is to use it and spread the word to your friends.
