# zmk-config
|
|
|
|
This is my personal [ZMK firmware](https://github.com/zmkfirmware/zmk/) configuration.
|
|
It is ported from my QMK configuration, which in turn is heavily inspired by Manna Harbour's
|
|
[Miryoku layout](https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku).
|
|
|
|
## Key features
|
|
|
|
- simple macro-implementation of combos and keymap to fit different physical keyboards
|
|
- home-row mods on base layer, sticky mods on `Nav` and `Num` layers
|
|
- most symbols can be accessed from the base layer via combos
|
|
- sticky shift on right thumb, double-tap activates caps-word
|
|
- backspace morphs into delete when shifted
|
|
- unicode layer with Greek letters for mathematical typesetting (not yet ported to ZMK)

## Thoughts on combo layout
|
|
|
|
The combo layout is guided by two goals: (1) put all combos in easy-to-access locations,
|
|
and (2) make them easy to remember. Specifically:
|
|
|
|
- the top vertical-combo row is almost equivalent to the symbols on standard number rows,
|
|
making them easy to remember
|
|
- the bottom vertical-combo row is set up symmetrically to facilitate memorization
|
|
(subscript `_` aligns with superscript `^`; `-` aligns with `+`; division `/` aligns
|
|
with multiplication `*`; logical-or aligns with logical-and; back-slash aligns
|
|
horizontally with forward-slash)
|
|
- parenthesis, brackets, braces and punctuation are on the right-hand side for easy
|
|
usage when typing numbers
|
|
- a numlock shortcut (on `W+P`) is on the left-hand side for one-handed number-mode
|
|
- shortcuts for cut (on `X+D`), copy and paste are on the left-hand side for one-handed
|
|
usage when using the mouse
