Keymap Editor - Bumon42

This is a customization of the ZMK config for the Bumon42 keyboard with machine readable layout and keymap definitions for use with @nickcoutsos' keymap-editor tool.

Usage

• Navigate to the keymap-editor web app.
• In the Source drop-down menu, select GitHub.
• For the repository, input this repository's location: DAydDaY/zmk-config-Bumon42
• For the branch, select main.
• Modify the keymap as desired.
  • Refer to the zmk documentation for a description of the various behaviours and codes.
• Once you're happy with the changes, click "Commit Changes" at the bottom right of the page.
• Give it a few minutes (should be less than 10 minutes) to build the new firmware. There will be a button at the bottom right of the page that you can use to downlad the firmware.
• Download the firmware and extract it somewhere.
• Plug your Bumon42 to your computer and quickly double tap the reset button.
  • The left LED should be flashing blue, indicating the keyboard is in bootloader mode.
  • The keyboard should appear as a new drive on your system, with name: U disk
• As superuser, copy the Bumon42-Bumon42-zmk.uf2 file that you extracted from the downloaded zip file to the root of the U disk drive.
• Type a few letters with the Bumon42. It should now be using the updated keymap.

Usage for other users than yours truly

For the keymap-editor to do its job, it will need write access to the github repo it's pointing at.

If you want to use the keymap-editor for your Bumon42 keyboard and you are not this repository's author, please fork this repo first and substitute any reference to DAydDaY in the README with you own username.
