Coding with 42 keys : Day 21 with the Corne V3

[@louismoench3554]

sooo jealous! the way the keys allow your hands to move is so precise and elegant

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

You can actually buy this for around 140 euros. Definitely not cheap, but yes I really like the keyboard, typing feels like art at times when I'm in a good mood.

@@tokimaheryramarozaka2116 if you can solder its like 50

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

@@ShrimpyTodger I actually thought about that. But with all the RGB underglow it's definitely not the easiest to begin soldering with. But I plan on learning soon too on a board like the ferris or the chocofi.

@@tokimaheryramarozaka2116 Hey, where could I buy it for this cheap in Europe(since you mentioned euros)?

[@glitch015]

can you share your keymaps? I'm new to corne and I want to try it out as my main KB for programming too..

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

I have made another dedicated video on that topic with the github repo on my channel. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJKti5xsZ6ecj5o&

[@drownwarlord7581]

Would you share your CRKBD layout? I'm still struggling to code with layer change, I think I need to adjust my liayout to make it compatible for coding

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

I uploaded another video on my channel which did just that. I even put put the github link, but in case you don't want to hear me talk about it, here is the repo : github.com/tokyramarozaka/crkbd-corne-v3-keymap

[@drownwarlord7581]

@@tokimaheryramarozaka2116 i didnt know you uploaded specifically for this one, thanks !!

[@freeottis]

what do these screens display? Are they useful?

[@Tokycollision]

They just display keystrokes and the logo of the corne. It just looks prettier in my opinion, though it can drain the battery faster if you're on a wireless version.

[@stepan_rybalka]

Please, share keyboard layers you use. I have the same keyboard, but still can't choose good keymap layers for me.

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

Sure thing. I'll let you know here in a bit, still have a long day of work today. Probably going to make a video about it too to explain some choices.

[@stepan_rybalka]

@@tokimaheryramarozaka2116 thanks, I will be waiting. Have a good day! 👍

@@stepan_rybalka hey, just got done with the repo, and was in a rush to put up the keymap. But here it is : github.com/tokyramarozaka/crkbd-corne-v3-keymap

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

The video should come up in a few days, just been insanely busy running two jobs.

[@stepan_rybalka]

@@tokimaheryramarozaka2116 thanks, for sharing that. I will use your layouts. Did you think to try Colemak DH instead of Query?

[@ry7hym]

do you have your layers set up like Ben Vallack does, where he has the shift layer key hold the layer until you press a key? or are you still getting used to the layout?

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

I just use the standard, lower and raise layer, I havent played with the system that Ben Vallack did. I got used to the layout, but I haven't changed it all that much ever since.

[@_Gart_]

how were you able to program the LED's per side?

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

It has built-in RGB control, you can change the effect, the hue (meaning you could move the rainbow colorway left or right...I like violet-pink-blue the best on mine). You can assign it to a button using QMK.

website name ?

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

it's in the description : speedtyper.dev

[@liger7424]

great video, is Mx switches comfortable for you while typing ?? because I can't decide between mx and choc switches

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

I honestly preffer mx switches. I tried choc, they weren't that bad, but they were just not for me. I'll try with lighter choc switches later on.

[@SyrupSplash]

​@@tokimaheryramarozaka2116 Agreed, this is the reason I got a corne to begin with. I started with the ZSA Voyager with choc browns, pretty shit (switches, not board). Swapped them out for choc reds, marginally better but still shit. After 6 months I determined that I don't like the lack of travel; the input and travel I get from MX switches is 100% necessary for my typing satisfaction. Really ended up enjoying the split aspect of the Voyager though thus I built a corne :P

[@akirakurusaki2645]

Nice ka 😁

[@severgun]

very slow on {} [] () : = So answer is no. It is not OK. this symbols should not be on layers

[@ry7hym]

on a normal keyboard you use shift for those symbols so that's basically the same thing as a layer 😂

[@tokimaheryramarozaka2116]

I do disagree, but to each their opinion. Just keep in mind that this was 21 days using a split keyboard. Some time has passed, and I am just as fast on these punctuations on a split keyboard, if not faster, that on my laptop.
