Kenny Hung a67c930e9e XD75RE Custom layout, and clarification in readme.md (#1754)
* Duplicate default layout as basis of my own

* Basic Colemak layer, just to practice flashing

* Add reset button so that we don't have to short out the reset button on the board to flash it.

* Symbols layer

* Navigation layer, and remove unused keys. Now usable, nice.

* Correct backspace for UK QWERTY mapping

* Small clarification in XD75RE readme instructions

* Use UK pipe so that I can type a pipe on a UK keyboard

xd75 keyboard firmware

The XD75Re is a 15x5 full-grid ortholinear keyboard manufactured by XIUDI. This port of the QMK firmware is my first shot at using QMK, so if you see any features done wrong (or just plain missing), feel free to fix them and put in a pull request!

Quantum MK Firmware

For more info on this firmware (and how to make it your own), head over to qmk.fm.

Building

Download or clone the whole firmware and navigate to the keyboards/xd75 folder. Once your dev env is setup, you'll be able to type make to generate your .hex - you can then use the Teensy Loader to install the resulting .hex file, or have the make process install it using DFU.

Default

To build with the default keymap, simply run make xd75-default from the root directory (i.e. two levels above this file), and to install via DFU, make xd75-default-dfu, also from the root directory.

Note that DFU is likely to require root permissions, so installing the firmware likely requires a command line like:

$ sudo make xd75-default-dfu

Other Keymaps

The "default" keymap included is basically the OLKB Atomic keymap with a few buttons added for RGB underglow control. This should be usable as a starting point, but most people will be best served creating their own keymap and flashing it - more info on creating your own keymap is available in the official QMK documentation.

Keymaps follow the format <name>.c and are stored in subdirectories under keyboards/xd75/keymaps

To build the firmware binary hex file for a specific keymap, and install it, using DFU, just do make with a keymap like this:

$ make xd75-[default|<name>]
