+## Bootmagic Deprecation and Refactor ([#12172](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12172))
+
+QMK has decided to deprecate the full Bootmagic feature and leave Bootmagic Lite as the only remaining option.
+
+This pull request changes the behavior of `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE` such that specifying `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE = yes` enables Bootmagic Lite instead of full Bootmagic.
+
+### Tentative Deprecation Schedule
+
+This is the current planned roadmap for the behavior of `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE`:
+
+- From 2021-05-29, setting `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE = yes` will enable Bootmagic Lite instead of full Bootmagic.
+- From 2021-08-28, `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE` must be either `yes`, `lite`, or `no` – setting `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE = full` will cause compilation to fail.
+- From 2021-11-27, `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE` must be either `yes` or `no` – setting `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE = lite` will cause compilation to fail.

+## Infinite Leader key timeout
+
+Sometimes your leader key is not on a comfortable places as the rest of keys on your sequence. Imagine that your leader key is one of your outer top right keys, you may need to reposition your hand just to reach your leader key.
+This can make typing the entire sequence on time hard even if you are able to type most of the sequence fast. For example, if your sequence is `Leader + asd` typing `asd` fast is very easy once you have your hands in your home row. However starting the sequence in time after moving your hand out of the home row to reach the leader key and back is not.
+To remove the stress this situation produces to your hands you can enable an infinite timeout just for the leader key. This mean that, after you hit the leader key you will have an infinite amount of time to start the rest of the sequence, allowing you to proper position your hands on the best position to type the rest of the sequence comfortably.
+This infinite timeout only affects the leader key, so in our previous example of `Leader + asd` you will have an infinite amount of time between `Leader` and `a`, but once you start the sequence the timeout you have configured (global or per key) will work normally.
+This way you can configure a very short `LEADER_TIMEOUT` but still have plenty of time to position your hands.
+
+In order to enable this, place this in your `config.h`:
+```c
+#define LEADER_NO_TIMEOUT
+```
+
## Strict Key Processing
By default, the Leader Key feature will filter the keycode out of [`Mod-Tap`](mod_tap.md) and [`Layer Tap`](feature_layers.md#switching-and-toggling-layers) functions when checking for the Leader sequences. That means if you're using `LT(3, KC_A)`, it will pick this up as `KC_A` for the sequence, rather than `LT(3, KC_A)`, giving a more expected behavior for newer users.

Currently only 2 drivers are supported, but it would be trivial to support all 4 combinations.
Define these arrays listing all the LEDs in your `<keyboard>.c`:
```c
- const is31_led g_is31_leds[DRIVER_LED_TOTAL] = {
- /* Refer to IS31 manual for these locations
- * driver
- * | LED address

- { 0, C1_1 },

+ { 0, C1_15 },
+ // ...

```
Where `Cx_y` is the location of the LED in the matrix defined by [the datasheet](https://www.issi.com/WW/pdf/31FL3731.pdf) and the header file `drivers/issi/is31fl3731-simple.h`. The `driver` is the index of the driver you defined in your `config.h` (`0`, `1`, `2`, or `3` ).
-## Keycodes
+---
+
+From this point forward the configuration is the same for all the drivers. The `led_config_t` struct provides a key electrical matrix to led index lookup table, what the physical position of each LED is on the board, and what type of key or usage the LED if the LED represents. Here is a brief example:
+
+```c
+led_config_t g_led_config = { {
+ // Key Matrix to LED Index
+ { 5, NO_LED, NO_LED, 0 },
+ { NO_LED, NO_LED, NO_LED, NO_LED },
+ { 4, NO_LED, NO_LED, 1 },
+ { 3, NO_LED, NO_LED, 2 }

+ // LED Index to Physical Position
+ { 188, 16 }, { 187, 48 }, { 149, 64 }, { 112, 64 }, { 37, 48 }, { 38, 16 }

+} };
+```
+
+The first part, `// Key Matrix to LED Index`, tells the system what key this LED represents by using the key's electrical matrix row & col. The second part, `// LED Index to Physical Position` represents the LED's physical `{ x, y }` position on the keyboard. The default expected range of values for `{ x, y }` is the inclusive range `{ 0..224, 0..64 }`. This default expected range is due to effects that calculate the center of the keyboard for their animations. The easiest way to calculate these positions is imagine your keyboard is a grid, and the top left of the keyboard represents `{ x, y }` coordinate `{ 0, 0 }` and the bottom right of your keyboard represents `{ 224, 64 }`. Using this as a basis, you can use the following formula to calculate the physical position:
+
+```c
+x = 224 / (NUMBER_OF_COLS - 1) * COL_POSITION
+y = 64 / (NUMBER_OF_ROWS - 1) * ROW_POSITION
+```
+
+Where NUMBER_OF_COLS, NUMBER_OF_ROWS, COL_POSITION, & ROW_POSITION are all based on the physical layout of your keyboard, not the electrical layout.
+
+As mentioned earlier, the center of the keyboard by default is expected to be `{ 112, 32 }`, but this can be changed if you want to more accurately calculate the LED's physical `{ x, y }` positions. Keyboard designers can implement `#define LED_MATRIX_CENTER { 112, 32 }` in their config.h file with the new center point of the keyboard, or where they want it to be allowing more possibilities for the `{ x, y }` values. Do note that the maximum value for x or y is 255, and the recommended maximum is 224 as this gives animations runoff room before they reset.
+
+`// LED Index to Flag` is a bitmask, whether or not a certain LEDs is of a certain type. It is recommended that LEDs are set to only 1 type.

+## Custom LED Matrix Effects :id=custom-led-matrix-effects
-## Custom Layer Effects
+By setting `LED_MATRIX_CUSTOM_USER` (and/or `LED_MATRIX_CUSTOM_KB`) in `rules.mk`, new effects can be defined directly from userspace, without having to edit any QMK core files.
-Custom layer effects can be done by defining this in your `<keyboard>.c`:
+To declare new effects, create a new `led_matrix_user/kb.inc` that looks something like this:
+
+`led_matrix_user.inc` should go in the root of the keymap directory.
+`led_matrix_kb.inc` should go in the root of the keyboard directory.
+
+To use custom effects in your code, simply prepend `LED_MATRIX_CUSTOM_` to the effect name specified in `LED_MATRIX_EFFECT()`. For example, an effect declared as `LED_MATRIX_EFFECT(my_cool_effect)` would be referenced with:
+
+```c
+led_matrix_mode(led_MATRIX_CUSTOM_my_cool_effect);
+```
```c
+// !!! DO NOT ADD #pragma once !!! //
+
+// Step 1.
+// Declare custom effects using the LED_MATRIX_EFFECT macro
+// (note the lack of semicolon after the macro!)
+LED_MATRIX_EFFECT(my_cool_effect)
+LED_MATRIX_EFFECT(my_cool_effect2)
+
+// Step 2.
+// Define effects inside the `LED_MATRIX_CUSTOM_EFFECT_IMPLS` ifdef block
+#ifdef LED_MATRIX_CUSTOM_EFFECT_IMPLS
+
+// e.g: A simple effect, self-contained within a single method
+static bool my_cool_effect(effect_params_t* params) {
+ LED_MATRIX_USE_LIMITS(led_min, led_max);
+ for (uint8_t i = led_min; i < led_max; i++) {
+ led_matrix_set_value(i, 0xFF);
+ }
+ return led_max < DRIVER_LED_TOTAL;
+}
+
+// e.g: A more complex effect, relying on external methods and state, with
+// dedicated init and run methods
+static uint8_t some_global_state;
+static void my_cool_effect2_complex_init(effect_params_t* params) {
+ some_global_state = 1;
+}
+static bool my_cool_effect2_complex_run(effect_params_t* params) {
+ LED_MATRIX_USE_LIMITS(led_min, led_max);
+ for (uint8_t i = led_min; i < led_max; i++) {
+ led_matrix_set_value(i, some_global_state++);
+ }
+
+ return led_max < DRIVER_LED_TOTAL;
+}
+static bool my_cool_effect2(effect_params_t* params) {
+ if (params->init) my_cool_effect2_complex_init(params);
+ return my_cool_effect2_complex_run(params);
+}
+
+#endif // LED_MATRIX_CUSTOM_EFFECT_IMPLS
