# THIS IS OUT OF DATE. DO NOT USE. ONLY FOR REFERENCE

|
|
|
## Firmware of choice
|
|
### KMKPython
|
|
KMKPython is a fork of CircuitPython, but with libraries for most extensions
|
|
built in. This saves you from having to get them all and keep them updated
|
|
yourself. There may be other features added in the future that are exclusive to
|
|
KMKPython. For the nice!nano, this is highly recommended, and used in place of
|
|
CircuitPython.
|
|
Notable differences include
|
|
- Built in libraries for Bluetooth, RGB, and more
|
|
- Saves space as builds are optimized for keyboards
|
|
- Microcontrollers like the nice!nano will be able to access all features out of
|
|
the box.
|
|
|
|
### CircuitPython
|
|
CircuitPython can be installed by following this guide using the guide
|
|
for [installing circuit python](https://learn.adafruit.com/welcome-to-circuitpython/installing-circuitpython).
|
|
It's recommended to run the latest stable version that is at least 5.0 or higher.
|
|
Beta versions may work, but expect limited support.
|
|
#### Notable differences include
|
|
- Supports more devices
|
|
- Less built in libraries. If using RGB, Bluetooth, and more, you will have to
|
|
add these libraries yourself
|
|
- Some devices such as the nice!nano don't have much free space, so not all
|
|
features can be installed at the same time
