+# Default Keymap
+
+This default keymap follows many of the norms seen in non-programmable keyboards
+ to ease initial use of the Hillside keyboard.
+It is a starting point for you to tweak over time to better suit _your_ preferences.
+You can easily customize it with the
+ [QMK configurator](https://config.qmk.fm/#/hillside/0_1/LAYOUT)
+ or with the [via firmware](https://caniusevia.com).
+
+Some of its key features are:
+- A mostly standard base layer with letters, some symbols, shift, modifier and delete keys
+ in the expected places for non-programmable keyboards.
+- QWERTY, Colemak-DH and Dvorak options for the letter and symbol layout.
+- Comfortable modifier and function or symbol combinations on the non-base layers
+ using modifiers on the home row of the navigation/edit, symbol/function and number-pad layers.
+- Word navigation and cut/copy/paste keys on the navigation layer.
+- A slightly optimized number pad with the more frequently used numbers on the home row.
+
+We've deliberately omitted some features:
+- Combos: because the online configuration tools do not handle them
+ and because they would add to the initial learning curve,
+ as helpful to a keymap as a light sprinkling of combos can be.
+- Multi-function mod-tap keys, auto shift capitalization and auto-exit modes such as CAPWORD or NUMWORD:
+ as they may be too large a step for someone new to programmable keyboards.
+
+## Base Layer
+
+```
+| TAB | Q | W | E | R | T |---------------------------| Y | U | I | O | P | BKSPC |
+| CAPS | A | S | D | F | G |---------------------------| H | J | K | L | ; | ENTER |
+| SHIFT | Z | X | C | V | B | ~ |---------------| ESC | N | M | , | . | / | SHIFT |
+--------------|CTRL |-----| GUI | ALT | Num | Nav |---| Sym |SPACE| ALT | GUI |-----| ' |--------------
+```
+
+The base layer provides a very standard key layout:
+
+- Return, Tab, backspace and shift keys in the outer columns.
+- Alt/option and win/command keys on both thumbs, with the location swappable for windows or mac.
+- A space key on the right thumb.
+
+The differences from a standard layout are:
+
+- There are three additional "shift" keys
+ to access the navigation/editing, symbol/function, and number layers.
+- Esc and `~ are above the thumbs.
+- The Menu and AltGr keys are on a layer.
+
+The default layout is QWERTY with alternatives of Dvorak and Colemak-DH
+and the alt/option and win/command key locations are swappable for windows or mac.
+
+<details>
+<summary>Details of Dvorak and Colemak-DH</summary>
+The Dvorak and Colemak-DH base layers
+ have identical non-alpha and non-symbol keys as the QWERTY base layer.
+In the Dvorak layout, the symbol key in the bottom row is the "/?" symbols
+ so that the same 12 symbols are taken care of on the base layer.
+
+```

+```
+</details>
+
+## Navigation, Editing and Media Layer
+
+```
+| | INS | | | |VOL+ |---------------------------|PG_UP|HOME | | END| | DEL |
+| | GUI | ALT |CTRL |SHIFT|VOL- |---------------------------|PG_DN|LEFT | UP |RIGHT| | ENTER |
+| SHIFT |UNDO | CUT |COPY |PASTE|REDO |MUTE |---------------| ESC |RALT |WORDL|DOWN |WORDR|MENU | SHIFT |
+--------------|CTRL |-----| GUI | ALT | Num | *** |---| Adj |BSPC | ALT | GUI |-----|CTRL |--------------
+```
+Holding down the Nav key accesses a navigation and editing layer:
+
+- Navigation arrows are on and below the right home row in a cross pattern.
+ This feels more natural for a column stagger keyboard than an inverted T.
+ The keys below that move left or right by a word.
+ Home, end, and page up/down are beside them.
+- Modifiers in the left home row make it easier to use the arrows
+ to select text with the shift key or move between desktops or tabs.
+- Editing keys appear on the lower left.
+ The edit keys, modifiers and arrows make it easy to move text around without leaving the layer.
+- Delete is in the upper right, and a backspace key is on the thumb.
+- The base layer modifiers and escape are in the same spots as on the base layer,
+ and a right-hand control key is added.
+- Media volume and play keys are on the left, accessible with one hand.
+- Menu and AltGr keys fill out the layer.
+- A few keys do nothing and are available for more user-specific needs.
+
+## Symbol and Function Layer
+
+```
+| F11 | ! | @ | # | $ | % |---------------------------| ^ | & | * | ( | ) | BSPC |
+| F12 | F1 | F2 | F3 | F4 | F5 |---------------------------| | |SHIFT|CTRL | ALT | GUI | ENTER |
+| SHIFT | F6 | F7 | F8 | F9 | F10 |PRTSC|---------------| ESC | \ | [ | ] | { | } | SHIFT |
+--------------|CTRL |-----| GUI | ALT | Num | Adj |---| *** |SPACE| ALT | GUI |-----|CTRL |--------------
+```
+Holding down the Sym key accesses a layer of symbol and function keys:
+
+- The symbols usually found on the number keys are in the top row.
+ If desired, you can use these positions for other things,
+ as the symbols are also accessible from the number pad layer with the shift key.
+- Several more symbols appear on the right.
+- The function keys are on the left, beginning with two rows of five.
+- A row of modifiers in the home row allows the comfortable creation of any modifier and function key combination.
+- The base layer modifier and escape keys are still available, as is a right-hand control key.
+
+## Number Pad and Algebraic Layer
+```
+| TAB | - | + | = | / | * |---------------------------| . | 7 | 8 | 9 | | BSPC |
+| | GUI | ALT |CTRL |SHIFT| |---------------------------| 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | _ | ENTER |
+| SHIFT | | | | | | |---------------| ESC | , | 4 | 5 | 6 | | SHIFT |
+--------------|CTRL |-----| GUI | ALT | *** | |---| |BSPC | ALT | GUI |-----|CTRL |--------------
+```
+Holding down the Num key accesses a number pad and arithmetic symbols:
+
+- The number pad has the lowest numbers swapped into the home row as these are the most commonly used.
+- A row of modifiers in the home row allows the comfortable creation of any modifier and number combination.
+- Symbols commonly used with numbers fill out the layer
+ and can be combined with the home row mods or the existing base layer modifiers on the right hand.
+- Several keys remain unused and await more user-specific needs.
+
+
+## Adjust Layer
+```
+| |QWERT|DVORK|COLMK|AG_SWAP|AG_NORM|-----------------------| | | | | | |
+| | | | |CTR_S|CTR_N|---------------------------|MOD+ |BRI+ |HUE+ |SAT+ | | |
+| RESET | | | | | | |--------------|RGBTOG|MOD- |BRI- |HUE- |SAT- | | |
+--------------| |-----| | | | *** |---| *** | | | |-----| |--------------
+```
+Simultaneously holding down the Nav and Sym keys enables keys to adjust various keyboard settings:
+
+- The base layer can be set to QWERTY, Colemak-DH or Dvorak,
+ but the keyboard reverts to QWERTY each time it is plugged in.
+- Alt/option and GUI/command can be swapped for mac users or restored to the windows norm.
+ This setting persists over power loss.
+- The backlight LEDs can be enabled, disabled, and controlled.
+ These settings also persist over power loss.
+
+
+## Make it Yours
+
+If you are coming from a traditional keyboard,
+ with a row-staggered layout and a large set of physical keys,
+ learning to use a column staggered (ergo) and layer-based keyboard,
+ which uses layers instead of finger reaches to access numbers, symbols and functions,
+ will be an adjustment for your muscle memory and your mental keyboard map.
+This default layout tries to simplify that adjustment by keeping things in the expected spots when possible.
+
+Yet this layout is only a decent compromise and is not optimal for each user.
+
+The online configurator makes it easy to tweak this layout to your needs.
+You can add additional layers or completely switch around what these do.
+
+Some changes you might consider making:
+- Put some of your most-used key combinations on the unused keys on the navigation layer.
+- If you are on a mac, switch the editing and word navigation keys from ctrl-x to cmd-x.
+- Change the shift keys to one-shot shift keys,
+ where pressing and releasing them shifts the next key pressed.
+ That is much easier on your hands than holding them down.
+ Yet, they can still be held as usual if desired.
+- Instead of holding down the thumb key to keep the symbol layer active,
+ you could use a one-shot layer key.
+ One-shot modifiers are likely less stress on your hands and may even be faster.
+ You would still be able to hold it down instead.
+- Instead of holding down the key for the number pad layer,
+ you could make it a layer toggle, like caps lock is a capitalization toggle key.
+
+Here are some other keymaps for inspiration and ideas:
+- The [Ferris default](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/ferris/keymaps/default) uses more advanced features as it has far fewer keys to work with.
+- The [Miryoku](https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku/tree/master/docs/reference) keymap ensures that all modifiers are comfortably available with each character key.
+- The [Kyria default](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/splitkb/kyria/keymaps/default) has different keymap choices and a couple more keys.
+
+A good metaphor is to think of your keymap as a bonsai tree that you tweak slightly over time
+ in response to ideas of how it might serve you better.
+
+
+## Why no keymap.c
+
+Via and the online configurator provide straightforward visual ways to work with a simple layout,
+ and both use a .json keymap format.
+So this default ```keymap.json``` was created with the online configurator
+ and formatted for easier reading and editing.
+
+If you wish, you can edit the ```keymap.json``` directly in a text editor, optionally use the below ```json2hill.py``` to restore the spacing, and then compile and flash it.
+
+Or, you can use the graphical configurator to edit the keymap. To do that:
+
+- Open the [QMK configurator](https://config.qmk.fm/#/handwired/hillside/LAYOUT)
+- Using the green up arrow button, load the keymap from ```qmk_firmware/keyboards/handwired/hillside/keymaps/default/keymap.json```
+- Make the changes you wish to the layout
+- Save the keymap using the green down arrow button.
+- Copy those changes back into your QMK repository and reformat for easy reading using the format script:
+```
+./keyboards/handwired/hillside/0_1/keymaps/json2hill.py --input <Your download directory>/default.json > ./keyboards/handwired/hillside/0_1/keymaps/default/keymap.json
+```
+ You may need to make that script executable with ```chmod +x```. After your keymap is safely copied and formated, you may want to remove the keymap from your download directory so later downloads will automatically receive the same file name.
+
+After either method of editing, compile and flash the keymap as usual.
+
+You can combine a .json based keymap with more advanced features specified in .c files
+ with a bit more complexity.
+For example, see
+[pierrec83's Kyria map](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/splitkb/kyria/keymaps/pierrec83).
