+
+A 40% ortholinear keyboard with in-switch LED support, underglow, and USB Type C.
+
+* Keyboard Maintainer: [The QMK Community](https://github.com/qmk)
+* Hardware Supported: YMD40v2 PCB (ATmega32U4)
+* Hardware Availability: [AliExpress](https://www.aliexpress.com/i/32821953148.html), [ymdkey.com](https://ymdkey.com/collections/40-mini-diy/products/ymd40-v2-diy-kit-qmk-type-c-pcb-cnc-case-plate-for-40-mini-cute-mechanical-keyboard-similar-to-planck-layout)
+
+Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
+
+ make ymdk/ymd40/v2:default
+
+Flashing example for this keyboard:
+
+ make ymdk/ymd40/v2:default:flash
+
+To reset the board into bootloader mode, hold the key at the top left of the keyboard while connecting the USB cable (also erases persistent settings).
+
+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).
