kmk_firmware VS dactyl-keyboard

plenty.. try their zulip and you will see(https://kmkfw.zulipchat.com/).. also google may help... plenty of youtube pushers also will provide you the info...

Im not really sure where the problem would be. Try to flash the example firmware from the official kmk github and see if that works for you. If it doesn't then there may be a problem with the hardware 🤔 https://github.com/KMKfw/kmk_firmware/tree/master/boards/reviung41

You'll need to copy the following onto storage device: 1. CircuitPython files/binaries for controller, if not present 2. kmk folder from KMK firmware. github, if not present. 3. kb.py and main.py files for your board. Pre-configured boards can be found in KMK firmware github in boards directory.

I'll try to set it up locally and will otherwise contact... Got time over Easter. Thx a lot. I also have seen that piantor for KMK has an open pull request which means the board dev will soon be ready for workflow builds of Miryoku. https://github.com/KMKfw/kmk_firmware/pull/723 I like KMK a bit more as it will allow me to quickly change the extra keys to whatever makes sense .... All just with s simple text editor.

Here's a pull request to add piantor board to KMK firmware. The logic to define config for left and right halves is actually really nice.

There's a recent pull request to add the Piantor to KMK, and that's a split 42 key that uses the pico with direct pins to keys: https://github.com/KMKfw/kmk_firmware/pull/723

See above. I set this up some time ago; the one I am using is pretty much the demo one from the KMK github.

I've uploaded these files to github here if you wish to look around but I recommend also looking through the various boards in the kmk github as well for more guidance too. This was my first kmk based keyboard so my code might not be the best lol but I hope this is helpful regardless. Let me know if you have any questions!

I want to build the lightcycle (MX variant) (may make some adjustments e.g. making the outermost columns 1.25u like my Kinesis 360). Additionally, here is what I'm thinking:

Handwired, QMK on Raspberry Pi Pico, model from https://github.com/adereth/dactyl-keyboard with modified thumb cluster. 3d printed with wooden PLA, sanded and coated. Hackysacks as provisional wrist support 😉

I plan to use PIN GPB6 and GPB7 on The MCP23018 for the rotary encoder. I am using QMK Version 0.17.9 and followed the build of this QMK - GUIDE

Retail wise, the MoErgo Glove80 is a Dactyl like board with low profile switches.

It's a custom request, but is closest to the original dactyl key placement.

Thanks, I take no credit for the design that's for sure, I think the original dactyl is here
