Orthodox
========
*Please note this guide is a work in progress and is based directly on the Let's Split guide.*
Orthodox is a split ortholinear keyboard with thumb-clusters designed in 2017 by /u/Deductivemonkee, expected to be available in group buys.
Each half has 18 keys in a 3x6 grid and a five key thumb-cluster, of which three use 1.25-unit keycaps.
Its firmware is based on the Let's Split's.
Each side is controlled by an Arduino Pro Micro (or compatible), and they're connected by a TRRS cable using the serial protocol.
Support for the protocol using TWI (i2c®) is a work-in-progress.
## Revisions
- `Rev.1` Prototype GB version, supporting only Pro Micro in the corner footprint, and using PCB top- and bottom-plates.
Note that the second number after the `Rev.` text is the pcb *order number.* The prototypes will say 1, and the next order of any revision will say 2 and so on.
## Keymaps
[The default layout can be unofficially referred to here.](http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/#/gists/f120e2703a22a6a69c7be9a65a9d1342)
The thumb-clusters are an extension of row 2 and row 3 along columns 7, 8, and 9.
Row 2 does not have a physical key in column 8, so when editing keymaps a placeholder constant (`XXXXXXX` or `KC_NO`) must be used in the row2-col8 position.
## Build Guide
[Official build guide by /u/Deductivemonkee](http://imgur.com/a/9c0NP)
For further reading on build- and flashing-procedures for split ortholinear skeleton-case keyboards, please refer to [An Overly Verbose Guide to Building a Let's Split Keyboard](https://github.com/nicinabox/lets-split-guide), much of which can be applied to the Orthodox.
## First Time Setup
Download or clone the whole firmware and navigate to the keyboards/orthodox directory. Once your dev env is setup, you'll be able to generate the default .hex using:
```
$ make rev1-default
```
You will see a lot of output and if everything worked correctly you will see the built hex files in your *root qmk_firmware directory* two levels up:
```
orthodox_rev1_default.hex
```
If you would like to use one of the alternative keymaps, or create your own, copy one of the existing [keymaps](keymaps/) and run make like so:
