+* Hardware Supported: Any QMK-compatible MCU board
+* Hardware Availability: No additional hardware required
+
+Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
+
+ make converter/xmk:default
+
+Flashing example for this keyboard:
+
+ make converter/xmk:default:flash
+
+To flash pre-compiled firmware to a pro-micro on Linux without using the `qmk` CLI:

+
+See the [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_build_tools) and the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_make_guide) for more information. Brand new to QMK? Start with our [Complete Newbs Guide](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/newbs).
+
+## Bootloader
+
+Enter the bootloader in 4 ways:
+
+* **Boot shell command**: Give the `boot` command to the `converter/xmk` shell, e.g. `echo "boot" > /dev/ttyACM0`
+* **Keycode in layout**: Press the key mapped to `QK_BOOT` if it is available
+* **Physical reset button**: Briefly press the button on the back of the PCB - some may have pads you must short instead
+* **Bootmagic reset**: Hold down the key at (0,0) in the matrix (usually the top left key or Escape) and plug in the keyboard
