## What is QMK Firmware?
|
|
|
|
QMK (*Quantum Mechanical Keyboard*) is an open source community centered around developing computer input devices. Early on the community was keyboard focused, but has now grown to include mice and MIDI devices as well. The community maintains [QMK Firmware](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware), [QMK Configurator](https://config.qmk.fm), [QMK Toolbox](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox), [qmk.fm](https://qmk.fm), and this documentation.

## Get Started
|
|
|
|
Totally new to QMK? There are two ways to get started:
|
|
|
|
* Basic: [QMK Configurator](https://config.qmk.fm)
|
|
* Just select your keyboard from the dropdown and program your keyboard.
|
|
* We have an [introductory video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-imgglzDMdY) you can watch.
|
|
* Advanced: [Use The Source](newbs.md)
|
|
* More powerful, but harder to use

## Make It Yours
|
|
|
|
QMK has lots of [features](features.md) to explore, and a good deal of reference documentation to dig through. Most features are taken advantage of by modifying your [keymap](keymap.md), and changing the [keycodes](keycodes.md).
