Support for Alternative Layouts
This is a summary of how alternative layouts have been supported by kits such as Colevrak and Homing. It is not a discussion of alt layout performance and development, but if that interests you I highly recommend starting with Pascal Getreuer’s A guide to alt keyboard layouts (why, how, which one?). It’s a concise and comprehensive overview with links to some great sites that go deeper. He also has a separate Links about keyboards page. The Keyboard layouts doc he recommends explains layout goals and metrics in detail, summarizing the alt layouts discussed here as well as more than one hundred others. Sculpted-profile The majority of custom keycap sets are sculpted-profile (Cherry, SA, MT3, KAT, etc. - more on profiles generally here) so let’s start there. Because each row has a unique keycap shape, alt layouts require a unique keycap for each legend that moves off its QWERTY row.

So, i see other people using this tool and so i'm confused?? Are there instructions somewhere I'm not seeing at? Am I doing something wrong or missing a step somewhere? I hope this makes sense and is enough explanation! Basically no matter what I do in the tool (and I've tried just about everyhting I can think of), I see no way of actually flashing the RAW JSON changes I've made onto the keybaord. It doesn't appear to actually be producing/making/creating/changing any bin file using the changes I make in the tool? Thanks@!!! Other than that and some squeaky keys, I'm liking the keyboard! Cant wait to be able to get the programming down on it!!
So, when I make my changes in the client, I can see the appropriate changes in the RAW Layout JSON.
So i click Flash, my command is dfu-util, bin file to flash is the above bin file.
Flashing does nothing though, the changes I make in the client seems like they're not stored anywhere I can find. I don't understand how this tool is working for others. Maybe other versions are working idk, or maybe i'm missing something
