This is my Quantum Mechanical Keyboard (QMK) keymap for the Dactyl Ergodox. Who knew a keyboard could do so much?

Topics

Feature libraries

• Achordion – customize the tap-hold decision

• Autocorrection – run rudimentary autocorrection on your keyboard

• Caps Word – modern alternative to Caps Lock

• Custom shift keys – they're surprisingly tricky to get right; here is my approach

• Layer Lock key – macro to stay in the current layer

• Mouse Turbo Click – macro that clicks the mouse rapidly

• Repeat Key – an extensible "repeat last key" implementation

• Sentence Case – automatically capitalize the first letter of sentences

• Word selection – macro for convenient word or line selection

QMK

• Macro buttons – an assortment of practical QMK macros

• Triggers: reacting to interesting events – layer changes, tap vs. long press, etc.

• Typing non-English letters – several approaches to type symbols like ä, ç, λ

• QMK song player – play QMK song code in your browser

General

• Alt keyboard layouts – switching from QWERTY to an alternative keyboard layout

• Designing a symbol layer – ergonomic and character frequency considerations

• Questioning the ergonomics of 40% keyboards – smaller is not necessarily better

• PSA: Thumbs can get overuse injuries – anecdotes, common injuries, countermeasures

• Keyboard FAQS – thoughts on topics that come up regularly

• Links about keyboards – interesting links about keyboards and related topics
