+# ErgoDox EZ 1337 configuration
+
+Custom layout based on the default layout. Intended for interational
+users of us intl-altgr layout. Note that some common keys might be
+missing, as this layout is intented to be used on *nix systems by
+users familiar with their system. The layout is geared towards
+avoiding using the rat (mouse for those of you who are unfamiliar with
+tiling window managers) as much as possibly.
+
+# Layouts
+
+All layer images created using [keyboard-layout-editor](http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/)
+
+## Base layer
+
+[![Base layer](images/deadcyclo-base-layout.png)](http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/#/gists/0321b18620180a3e46c498206eb65366)
+
+The base layer here is marked with the us international alt-gr layout,
+including characters bound to what on an iso keyboard would be alt-gr
+and on an ansi keyboard right alt.
+
+Regular (and irregular) modifier keys are marked with a yellowish
+gray. Layer moderators are marked with blue, red and green, which are
+the same colors each layer displays on the LEDs when active.
+
+All of the layer switch keys, except for the two center keys marked L1
+TOG, are dual purpose. Hence for example the top left key produces ESC
+if tapped, and temporarilly toggles L3 when hold down. The two center
+L1 TOG keys toggle L1 on and off for more permanent layer toggling.
+
+The UNI keys enter the linux ibus unicode composer mode
+(ie. Ctrl+Shift+u). Use this to enter unicode characters. Hit the key,
+type in the unicode hex value, and hit enter.
+
+## Layer 1 - Symbols and RGB
+

+
+The Symbols and RGB layer contains function keys, commonly used
+symbols, a numpad and if you have the new Ergodox Ez shine keys for
+controlling various RGB-led functions. In addition, it provides an up
+and a down key for easy scrolling. RGB controller keys are yellow.
+
+## Layer 2 - Media, Mouse and Navigation
+

+
+The Media, Mouse and unicode layer contains special keys for moving
+the mouse and clicking on it with the keyboard. In addition it
+provides standard media control keys, and default arrow keys.
+
+## Layer 3 - Unicode
+
+[![Layer 3 - Unicode](images/deadcyclo-layer-3-unicode.png)](http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/#/gists/67d9613dcd873c68693d11863d0fd289)
+
+The unicode layer provides keys for directly typing unicode (utf-8)
+
+## Layer 4 - Unicode 2
+
+[![Layer 43 - Unicode](images/deadcyclo-layer-4-unicode-2.png)](http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/#/gists/7b2241110ab8311d9668a0798f3baf4a)
