crkbd VS keymap-editor

I admire the Corne layout and hope to mirror its measurements. More details here.

I've been inspired by projects like Corne Ultralight, Urchin, and Brain. I like how these boards have wireless first.

I found PCB templates on https://github.com/petejohanson/crkbd/tree/board/corne-ultralight/corne-ultralight and I modified them in Kicad by adding some art. As I ordered more than I needed, I could sell you one. PM me if you want some.

corne-classic (JP/EN): Corne for Cherry MX switches

Corne Ultralight

I think the easiest way to do this build is by using this corne ultralight pcb. If you can use this PCB it will make your life much easier, it already has native support for nice!view and power switch and you won't need any wires.

I wanted a wireless crkbd, so I took petejohanson's ultralight corne mod and modded it even further — I added MX/Choc hot socket mounts. I used Freerouting app to wire the PCB automatically. It doesn't look pretty but DRC doesn't report any big issues.

i have a build with the pcbs from pete johanson(https://github.com/petejohanson/crkbd/tree/board/corne-ultralight)

Column stagger is the same but spacing differs as this one is choc spaced. It should be about the same as Corn Ish Zen 3 or Pete Johanson's Corne Ultralight. I'm getting the same question from others so I'm trying to incorporate the Borne into https://jhelvy.shinyapps.io/splitkbcompare/ :)

The difference is: https://nickcoutsos.github.io/keymap-editor/ Click the firmware generated button which takes you directly to the action tab for the latest build. Then clicking to download firmware.

Looks nice. I can recommend the following graphical configurator: https://github.com/nickcoutsos/keymap-editor

I haven't looked into QMK configurators because if I go to the trouble of building a keeb I'd go all out and make it wireless. I did look at [keymap editor](https://github.com/nickcoutsos/keymap-editor) for ZMK, which could be close enough to Oryx for me to try sometime.

The only other thing I could recommend in that case is custom built; it's easier than you'd think, and some people have made GUI interfaces for ZMK like this: https://github.com/nickcoutsos/keymap-editor

I know ZMK does not have an official one, but there's one that uses github actions in order to build a firmware for you after you commit your keymap. That's probably the closest we'll have to zmk configurator for a while https://github.com/nickcoutsos/keymap-editor

I think the closest thing at the moment is https://github.com/nickcoutsos/keymap-editor.

Looking forwards: the chosen bootloader should support over-the-air updates, and GUI front-ends for ZMK do exist, albeit with varying maturity. 1 2
