  • How have you built your layout?
    3 projects | /r/crkbd | 27 Feb 2021
    I have a 3x5 corne. I use qwerty with home row mods mirrored on both sides. a = a/ctrl, s = s/alt, d = d/gui, f = f/shift. I have a navigation/extra symbols layer with vim style arrows on the home row of the right side and mods on the left side. A numbers layer with mods on the home row and numbers at the top. A function layer with function keys at the top in the same positions as the numbers. A bluetooth layer for managing bluetooth profiles. I find it works well for me but I don’t think any one layout works for everyone. Here’s my layout: https://github.com/int3rrupt/zmk-config/blob/master/config/corne.keymap
