Kyria's lw Keymap

Custom keymap for the kyria keyboard. It is intended to be used with an English (US, intl. with dead keys) keyboard layout (includes the keymap_us_international.h header).

This layout is mainly designed for every day writing in either English, French or German and programming.

The layout implements all accents and symbols (leveraging dead keys) found on a swiss keyboard. It uses Unicode for special characters. It makes use of the Linux built-in IBus Unicode input and relies on WinCompose for Windows.

Build this keymap

qmk compile -kb splitkb/kyria/rev1 -km lw

Flash this keymap

Note

: this was tested for an Elite-C microcontroller.

First, check that the bootloader is visible. For instance:

$ lsusb
...
Bus 001 Device 034: ID 03eb:2ff4 Atmel Corp. atmega32u4 DFU bootloader
...

If the bootloader is not visible, press the reset button of the microcontroller. The bootloader should become visible when running the lsusb command again.

The microcontroller can now be flashed:

qmk flash -kb splitkb/kyria/rev1 -km lw

Note

: if there is any issue, run qmk doctor to see whether the qmk configuration is valid.

Implemented keymaps

The default keymap contains 5 layers which allows it to include all keys found on an ANSI layout TKL keyboard plus media keys. Hardware features of the Kyria such as OLEDs, rotary encoders and underglow are also supported.

The five different layers are the following:

  1. Base layer (QWERTZ)
  2. Symbols/Numbers layer
  3. Navigation layer

Base layer

This layer is activated by default.

/*

 */

Hold down the Enter key to make it a shift. This compensates for the poor placement of the dedicated LShift key.

Symbol layer

This layer is activated when holding MO(1).

The key UC_MOD allows to switch between Linux and Windows unicode. Note however that WinCompose must be installed on Windows (simply download and install the latest release and it will run).
