This is my first work ever with QMK - I'm not intimate yet with all details and considerations.

This PR comprises two parts:

  • mod to retrofit the Kinesis Advantage keyboard with a Arduine Pro Micro (clone).
  • a Dvorak keymap that is based on the Kinesis default. The ESC and Caps lock keys are swapped.

I'd appreciate feedback, particularly on:

  • how to implement a faster debounce strategy for reducing lag DONE.
  • whether setting the pinouts is necessary too in nguyenvietyen.c
  • general code conventions and potential cleanups

Thank you!

Cleanups are done. This PR should be ready for merging, unless further feedback arises.

- docs for DIY
- custom matrix = lite
- a near-factory dvorak mapping
- optimized debouncing for lower latency

I just discovered a minor led activation bug when hooked to my docking station while the laptop is disconnected.

Please hold off merging until I push the fix.

I just discovered a minor led activation bug when hooked to my docking station while the laptop is disconnected.

Please hold off merging until I push the fix.

I've investigated it a bit. The Docking station is practically a USB hub. When the laptop gets disconnected, it looks like QMK is sending 0 to all led outputs. Due to the Kinesis wiring, all keyboard LEDs are switched on by that.

I'll look further for a solution.

So this doesn't block merging, but it would be nice to address it as part of this PR.

The PR is ready again for review (and merging).
