Split Keyboards
Split keyboards are mostly the same as unsplit and very easy to adapt a keymap for. Currently UART is supported, though other modes will come later such as Bluetooth and i2c.
Useful config options:
keyboard.split_flip = True # If your boards are identical but one is flipped, this option is for you
keyboard.split_offsets = [6, 6, 6, 6] # This is the how many keys are on each column on the "Master" half
Master Half
Choosing the master half can be done one of 2 ways. You can set this true or false if you only pleg in on one side.
keyboard.split_master_left = True
EE HANDS
If you want to plug in on either side, it can be done fairly easily but requires setup.
On each half of your keyboard make a file called kmk_side.py and add one of these lines to the file depending on where each piece is physically located.
split_side = "Left"
OR
split_side = "Right"
and then in your keymap, add the line
from kmk_side import split_side
UART
To enable uart it's as simple as adding this line, of course changing the pin
keyboard.split_type = "UART"
keyboard.uart = keyboard.init_uart(tx=board.SCL)
