pvinis' keymap
This is a getting-used-to keymap for the ErgoDox EZ. It's very much a work in progress.

Layouts
Base layer
This is the base layer that contains the common buttons of all keymaps. Right now, it has the top left button as a flash button when it's tapped 4 times, and the two thumb islands. The islands contain the space and enter keys on the right, the backspace and shift on the left, and all the 1x1 keys are just layer switches.
Every time I connect the keyboard, I press the BEGIN layer switch, and then start typing.
Recently, I added a few application "shortcuts", that basically call ctrl+alt+cmd+<key>, and <key> is S for Slack, X for Xcode, M for Messenger. Using Hammerspoon, I show/hide the application.
Beginner layer
This is a basic keymap I use right now until I'm comfortable typing on the Ergodox. Currently uses a QWERTY layout, and the ([{}]) on the middle keys. Not a perfect layout, and its going to go away at some point, but for now thats my daily driver.
QWERTY layer
This is basically the same as the BEGIN layer, but it might go away. I'm not using it, but I should have a QWERTY layout on the keyboard, in case someone else wants to try it out, or if I completely forget how keyboards work! At some point, this and the BEGIN layer will become one.
CARPALX layer
This is here as a placeholder. I want to transition to Carpalx QGMLWY or White at some point. They both look very interesting and more comfortable to type on, but after I'm confident with typing on the Ergodox.
System Control layer
This one is a layer that, in time, will have controls like mouse movement, volume up/down, mute, sleep, restart, shutdown, etc.
Template layers
I have two commented out layers that are just templates, so I can easily create a new layer.
