If you use more than one keyboard with a similar keymap, you might see the benefit in being able to share code between them. Create your own folder in `users/` named the same as your keymap (ideally your github username, `<name>`) with the following structure:
* `/users/<name>/` (added to the path automatically)
- * `readme.md`
+ * `readme.md` (optional, recommended)
* `rules.mk` (included automatically)
* `<name>.h` (optional)
* `<name>.c` (optional)

`<name>.c` will need to be added to the SRC in `rules.mk` like this:

Will include the `/users/jack/` folder in the path, along with `/users/jack/rules.mk`.
+Additionally, `config.h` here will be processed like the same file in your keymap folder. This is handled separately from the `<name>.h` file.
+
+The reason for this, is that `<name>.h` won't be added in time to add settings (such as `#define TAPPING_TERM 100`), and including the `<name.h>` file in any `config.h` files will result in compile issues.
+
+So you should use the `config.h` for QMK settings, and the `<name>.h` file for user or keymap specific settings.

+## `Config.h`
+
+If you do add a `config,h` file, you want to make sure that it only gets processed once. So you may want to start off with something like this:
+
+```c
+#ifndef USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
+#define USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
+
+// Put normal config.h settings here:
+
+#endif // !USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
+```
+
+You can use any option hre that you could use in your keymap's `config.h` file. You can find a list of vales [here](config_options.md).

## Example
For a brief example, checkout `/users/_example/` , or for a more detailed examples check out [`template.h`](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/users/drashna/template.h) and [`template.c`](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/users/drashna/template.c) in `/users/drashna/` .

This is my personal userspace file. Most of my code exists here, as it's heavily shared.
-Userspace Config.h
-------------------
-
-By default, the userspace feature doesn't include a `config.h` file the way that that keyboards, revisions, keymaps and layouts handle them. This means that if you want global configurations via userspace, it's very difficult to implement.
-
-The reason for using seperate files here is that the `drashna.h` file doesn't get called in such a way that will actually define QMK settings. Additionally, attempting to add it to the `config.h` files has issues. Namely, the `drashna.h` file requires the `quantum.h` file... but including this to the `config.h` attemps to redefines a bunch of settings and breaks the firmare. Removing the `quantum.h` include means that a number of data structures no longer get added, and the `SAFE_RANGE` value is no longer defined, as well. So we need both a `config.h` for global config, and we need a seperate h file for local settings.
-
-However, the `rules.mk` file is included when building the firmware. So we can hijack that process to "manually" add a `config.h`. To do so, you would need to add the following to the `rules.mk` in your userspace:
-
-```c
-ifneq ("$(wildcard users/$(KEYMAP)/config.h)","")
- CONFIG_H += users/$(KEYMAP)/config.h
-endif
-```
-
-You can replace `$(KEYMAP)` with your name, but it's not necessary. This checks for the existence of `/users/<name>/config.h`, and if it exists, includes it like every other `config.h` file, allowing you to make global `config.h` settings.
-
-As for the `config.h` file, you want to make sure that it has an "ifdef" in it to make sure it's only used once. So you want something like this:
-
-```c
-#ifndef USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
-#define USERSPACE_CONFIG_H
-
-// put stuff here
-
-#endif
-```
