This is a ZMK config repo for my 30-36 key split keyboards, arranged in 3 rows of 5 columns with 2 or 3 thumb keys on each side. The keymap is optimized to be usable with 30 keys, with dropped keys from inner index and pinky columns and two thumb keys each, like the Hummingbird layout. Currently these keyboards are:
- A hand-wired Rommana (30 keys)
- A hand-wired, modified Grumpy (28 keys)
- Corne-ish Zen (36 keys)
- Hypergolic (1.2 BM variant) (34 keys)
It mainly uses three non-base layers activated through two thumb keys, along with combos. It has Ctrl/Shift thumb hold-taps along with home row mods, which are also available on the left side of NAV
layer.
FUN
layer is implemented as a tri-layer, i.e. it is active when both NAV
and SYM
are active.
The default alpha layer is a modification of Colemak-DH and an alternative is the Bird layout by @jcmkk3.
OS-dependent shortcuts are present on the NAV
layer, e.g. for Windows:
Win Close
: AltF4Tab Next
: CtrlTabTab Prev
: CtrlShiftTabTab Close
: CtrlF4Desk Next
: CtrlGuiRightDesk Prev
: CtrlGuiLeftWin Next
: AltTab (hold Alt while layer active) using zmkfirmware/zmk#1366Win Prev
: AltShiftTab (hold Alt while layer active)

folder, which is always up to date with the config.
See my QMK userspace for equivalent keymap definitions for QMK.
Some keyboards in this repo include an indicator widget utilizing an RGB LED, like the user LEDs on a Xiao BLE.
This widget is a ZMK module housed in zmk-rgbled-widget
-- check out the repo and the instructions to use it with your keyboards!
I use a custom ZMK branch referenced in west.yml which contains a few extras, namely mouse keys used in the MSE
layer, swapper behavior and display improvements for the Corne-ish Zen.

branch.
