Colemak layout for the Kimiko Rev.1 from Keycapss

For the last couple of weeks, I've been working on a layout to work with this nice split keyboard. I've wanted to try out the Colemak layout but was in need of some specific letters from the French alphabet as I work in the French-speaking part of Switzerland.

Also as I need to switch between MacOS and Ubuntu I've created a way to switch from one to the other and still have the same shortcuts positioning (ctrl and cmd have been inverted).

You can download this and install it as is on your Kimiko or feel free to create a fork for your own needs.

How to install

This supposes that you have already installed the QMK environment. If you haven't yet please follow the steps from their tutorial (currently found here). Please also check the doc for any steps that would be unclear.

Then follow these steps:

  1. go to the folder containing the Keycapsss layout
  2. clone this project there
  3. compile the layout
  4. flash the layout to the two halves of your keyboard

I hope you will appreciate the work done on the layout.

Layouts

Be aware that ctrl and cmd have been inverted on the Mac layout as to be able to use the same muscle memory for shortcuts.

Special thanks

A big thank you to the Keycapsss team for their great work on the keyboard and on giving the default layout from which I've been able to branch from.
