  • Corne and planck
    1 project | /r/qmk | 2 Jul 2023
    Hey guys more than a qmk question I have a GitHub question, I have a corne, lilf58 and a zsa plank keyboards, I use a variation of Dvorak which is totally custom so I mantain my own branch ir order to have the same layout across my keyboards to have the same experience when I switch between them but the zsa branch is a fork from the qmk (https://github.com/zsa/qmk_firmware/fork) but git don't allow me to do another fork. I would like to have my changes pushed in both projects what I currently do is have a fork for my corn and lily and in my fork I put my changes, and for the zsa fork I just clone it in my machine but I can't push anything to have a backup I would only like to change between branches to have access to my other keybs, sorry for the long post if any one else has this issue, how do you solve it?
  • How is compiling ZSA supposed to work?

  • What QMK version does ORYX use?
    1 project | /r/ergodox | 21 Mar 2023
    They have their own fork. https://github.com/zsa/qmk_firmware
  • Is it possible for the PC to detect Raise/Lower with QMK?
    4 projects | /r/olkb | 13 Jan 2023
    ZSA's oryx training does that, but it needs web-usb iirc. As they use a QMK fork, someone with more experience may be able to reproduce that with their own layout and a basic that handles the "monitoring traffic".

    Head over to ZSA's source on Github, scroll down to the building section. Take a note of the command it mentions there, but otherwise follow along with the instructions in that "Newbs guide from QMK."

  • Auto shift works properly everywhere but vim
    1 project | /r/ergodox | 20 Aug 2022
    ZSA’s QMK fork doesn’t have a bug tracker, and I’m not sure whether Oryx has one. But Drashna did open an Auto Shift-related pull request a couple of days ago!
  • Has the latest Moonlander firmware (v21.0) changed key timings?

  • Ergodox custom animation
    1 project | /r/ErgoDoxEZ | 22 Jun 2022
    Apologies if there is a better way to post code How I did this: * Forked the zsa repo for ergodox * https://github.com/zsa/qmk_firmware * Followed the newbie guide to setup QMK environment * https://docs.qmk.fm/#/newbs * Went to my current layout in oryz and selected Download Source (Glow) * Created a directory for my code in the forked repo * qmk_firmware > keyboards > ergodox_ez > glow > keymaps > shadowra88it * Copied the contents of my source folder to that directory * config.h , keymap.c, rules.mk * I disabled all the animations I didn't want so that I didn't have to cycle so much in config.h and defined using keypresses * keymaps.c I left alone. * rules.mk I added RGB_MATRIX_CUSTOM_USER = yes to the end of the file. * Then all the magic happens in the newly created rgb_matrix_user.inc
