I’ve actually got all the code to work now except the joystick part, which is the biggest (new) part for me for this keeb. I’ve been on the QMK discord (that’s how I knew to update QMK to resolve QK_BOOT haha, although I’m not entirely sure the combo works…) What do you mean read the joystick input pins once per scan instead of in every if statement?

edit: yeah config_common is deprecated according to the QMK discord. very unfortunately I actually have no idea what I’m doing with QMK/C++ code (esp the joystick part) in general and have just been kinda sticking things I’ve found on the internet in in hopes of something working out but no luck so far

I’ve tried to rewrite the joystick code and now am getting different errors:

Compiling: quantum/keymap_introspection.c                                                           [OK]

Also, I’m not sure if I need "#include “config_common.h” in my config.h file? I see it in some other config.h files. When I have that in my config.h file, it gives a fatal error: No such file or directory

Yep. QK_BOOT error was resolved after I updated, now it’s just left with the joystick error. I’ve also uploaded rules.mk to the drive link

Yes there’s one extra column on the left.

I’d spotted that error but forgot to update the Google drive after updating the .h file. I’ll try adding no pin!

Thank you!

Edit: that solved the LAYOUT errors!

Now it’s just the QK_BOOT and joystick code errors

Yes I spotted that error and made it 7 but forgot to update the Google drive! 😅

2. Yes it’s fine I exclusively use AliExpress knock off usb c pro micros

Thank you! I’ve saved your comment for future use :)

Creating from scratch! I’ve posted some of the things I’ve made here: https://www.reddit.com/user/_denton

I haven’t started experimenting around with the code for joysticks but am in the middle of making a keyboard (half) with a joystick. Did you find it worked ok just for acting as keyboard keys/combinations of keys?

I see under the ‘Accelerated’ portion where you tried to emulate mouse keys there weren’t really any results?

If you’re talking about long term working out, motivation will not cut it. It has to be determination/making it a habit. Like - “Time to take a shower”, “time to workout”.

But working out doesn’t mean you have to push yourself till you feel like puking. Start small, do 10 squats at lunch and another 10 when you finish your work day for e.g… Do something you find fun, not something that’s just “well running is exercise so I guess I have to do that”
