To use or customize this firmware, you need to have Arduino and Kaleidoscope installed on your computer.
If you don't yet have Kaleidoscope and Arduino installed on your computer, set them up now
git clone https://github.com/keyboardio/Model01-Firmware.git
Before you begin, make sure your Model 01 is connected to your computer.
Open the sketch you wish to flash (for example, Model01-Firmware.ino
).
Make sure that you've picked the Model 01 from the Boards list in the tools menu.

Hold down the "Prog" key in the top left corner of your keyboard, until the compile finishes and the upload begins.
You can customize your keyboard's key layout and LED effects by modifying the Model01-Firmware.ino
file in the same directory as this README. Model01-Firmware.ino is a computer program written in 'Arduino C'. You can find documentation about Arduino C at https://arduino.cc.
