26 WPM on first day is pretty solid.
I dropped from 70 to 15 when starting with an Ergodox and it took me about 10 days to get back to 60+
(And then I decided to switch to Colemak layout which is much harder than Row stagger -> column stagger I’d say)
See my other response for how I am driving the LEDs :) (Works fine with an Arduino program so that is not the issue here)
It seems to me that I get this line wrong: NRF_PSEL(SPIM_MOSI, 0, 16). I would read this as "Set pin P0.16 as SPI MOSI", however I cannot find a pin P0.16 exposed on the Xiao BLE https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/XIAO_BLE/
Can you give me a pointer where I am wrong?
(my RGB pin is P1.11 / D6, so I would've assumed that I should change this to NRF_PSEL(SPIM_MOSI, 1, 11), I know that the use of low frequency pins is discouraged by ZMK docs)
I am using this trick to convert the logic input to 5V, so that should work. Super hacky, but as far as I checked, every piece of this hack is entirely in spec for the components used.
I'll check with a simple Arduino program first I guess
UPDATE: Arduino program works, so it is not a hardware issue (lucky me)
Hey all.
I am currently prototyping a keyboard with the Seeedstudio Xiao BLE (nrf52840). I configured the shield config correctly & got it working. However, my RGB won’t turn on (followed the ZMK documentation on RGB underglow)
Does anybody have a pointer to a project that got RGB working with Seeedstudio Xiao BLE & RGB?
If you also want to try out tactile switches, go for the Choc Sunset.
It was pushed back to September but there might be an additional delay. Check out Dygma‘s YouTube channel, they are pretty transparent about updates on their process.
As others pointed out, the Dygma Defy might be an option when it’s finally available: https://dygma.com/products/dygma-defy
Alternatively, you could look for used ones, but this has the Return (and the parts) issue as well.
I suspect there will be other people like me who probably sell their Moonlander when the Defy is available.
I assume the Brown V2 are nothing like the V1 then. (Because those just lack a well-defined tactile bump). Might be worth trying them then.
yay, two pinky gang!
Personally I prefer still having 3 keys on the inner index column as I find it easier to hit inner column keys if they are part of one of the rows (and I only use the homerow pinky + don't like chords, so having 3 inner column keys per half is preferable to me).
Naming wise, you could always go for silly portmanteaus like "scoolp" (scoop + sculpted) or "scoob / scooboard" (scoop + keeb / keyboard) ;)
