See [RGB Matrix Indicators](feature_rgb_matrix.md#indicators) for details on how to do so. By including `#define RGBLIGHT_LAYERS` in your `config.h` file you can enable lighting layers. These make it easy to use your underglow LEDs as status indicators to show which keyboard layer is currently active, or the state of caps lock, all without disrupting any animations.
