# Left-handed Artsey.io Dvorak Layout for the Work Louder Micro using QMK
This is a left-handed layout for the Work Louder Micro macro pad, using the Artsey.io layout mapped to Dvorak.
- [Artsey.io](https://artsey.io/) is a one-handed keyboard layout that uses 8 keys in a 2x4 grid and a lot of chords to access all the keys on a standard keyboard.
- Left-handed means that the layout is designed to be used with the left hand, leaving the right hand free to use the mouse.
- Dvorak is an alternative keyboard layout that is designed to be more efficient than the standard QWERTY layout. This does not matter if you are using a one-handed keyboard, but I use Dvorak on my main keyboard do not want to switch input methods when using the macro pad.
- [QMK](https://qmk.fm/) is an open-source firmware for custom keyboards that allows you to program your keyboard to do whatever you want.
- The Work Louder Micro is a 16-ish-key macro pad with dual encoders, per-key RGB, RGB underglow, and more. It is available from the [Work Louder shop](https://worklouder.cc/creator-micro/).
## Usage
Create a new keymap in QMK for the Work Louder Micro:
```bash
qmk new-keymap -kb work_louder/micro -km dvorak-artsey-lh
```
Copy the contents of this repository into grandparent directory of the new keymap. This needs to be done because we have to patch `rgb_functions.c` so that we can disable the RGB underglow and reduce firmware size.
```bash
cp -r * ../qmk/keyboards/work_louder
```
Do the normal QMK build process:
```bash
qmk compile -kb work_louder/micro -km dvorak-artsey-lh
```
Flash the firmware to the Work Louder Micro (enter the bootloader first by holding down the horizontal encoder and plugging in the keyboard)
```bash
qmk flash -kb work_louder/micro -km dvorak-artsey-lh
```
I've mapped the top right encoder button to reset, so that you can easily enter the bootloader without having to unplug the keyboard in subsequent flashes.
## Thanks
This would not be possible without the work of the QMK team and the creators of the Artsey.io layout.

Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
make work_louder/micro:default
Flashing example for this keyboard:
make work_louder/micro:default:flash
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 2 ways:
* **Bootmagic reset**: Hold down the horizontal encoder (top left) and plug in the keyboard
* **Physical reset button**: Briefly press the button on the back of the PCB - some may have pads you must short instead
