The SharkPCB is an open-source ortholinear 40% layout designed by Gondolindrim for the AcheronProject.
* Keyboard Maintainer: [Gondolindrim](https://github.com/gondolindrim)
* Hardware Availability: you can get release Beta SharkPCBs using the JLCPCB manufacturer using the files at [its documentation](http:/acheronproject.com/pcbs/shark/shark/)
## How to flash
### Enter bootloader
### Release Alpha:
The DFU state in the bootloader can be accessed in 2 ways:
* **Bootmagic reset**: hold down the key at (0,0) in the matrix (usually the top left key or Escape) and plug in the keyboard
* **Physical reset button**: press the button on the back of the PCB
* **Keycode in layout**: press the key mapped to `RESET` if it is available (ESC key at layer 1 in the default layout)
### Release Beta:
The DFU state in the bootloader can be accessed in 3 ways:
* **Bootmagic reset**: hold down the key at (0,0) in the matrix (usually the top left key or Escape) and plug in the keyboard
* **Physical reset button**: press the button on the back of the PCB, for at least five seconds
* **Keycode in layout**: press the key mapped to `RESET` if it is available (ESC key at layer 1 in the default layout)
## Compile firmware
### Release Alpha
After accessing the DFU state in your PCB, build the default layout using:
make acheron/shark/alpha:default
### Release Beta
After accessing the DFU state in your PCB, build the default layout using:
make acheron/shark/beta:default
Then download the resulting binary `*bin` file using `dfu-util` or QMK Toolbox.
