Build & Program

Install Tools

First, you need tools to build firmware and program your controller. I assume you are on Windows here.

Install WinAVR. This is old but works well for this purpose. WinAVR is a tool set to build firmware including C compiler(gcc) and make commands. You can use CrossPack instead if you are on Mac.
Install Atmel FLIP. FLIP is a tool to program(load) firmware into AVR controller(ATMega32u4) via DFU bootloader. ATMega32u4 has DFU bootloader by factory default. You can use dfu-programmer instead if you are on Mac.
Install driver for DFU bootloader. At first time you start DFU bootloader on Chip 'Found New Hardware Wizard' will come up on Windows. If you install device driver properly you can find chip name like 'ATmega32U4' under 'LibUSB-Win32 Devices' tree on 'Device Manager'. If not you shall need to update its driver on 'Device Manager'. You will find the driver in FLIP install directory like: C:\Program Files (x86)\Atmel\Flip 3.4.5\usb. If you use dfu-programmer install its driver.

If you use PJRC Teensy you don't need step 2 and 3, just get Teensy loader.

Download source

You can find firmware source at github: https://github.com/tmk/tmk_keyboard

If you are familiar with Git tools you are recommended to use it.
If not you can download zip archive from: https://github.com/tmk/tmk_keyboard/archive/master.zip

Build firmware

Open terminal window to get access to commands. You can use cmd in Windows or Terminal.app on Mac OSX. In Windows press Windows key and R then enter cmd in Run command dialog showing up.
Move to project directory in the firmware source.

cd tmk_keyboard/{keyboard or converter}/
Build firmware using GNU make command. You'll see _.hex file in that directory unless something unexpected occurs in build process.

mkae -f Makefile. clean make -f Makefile.

Program Controller

Sock AVR USB chip including ATmega32U4 has DFU bootloader by factory default, you can use DFU tools for this purpose. FLIP is a DFU tool on Windows offered by Atmel. Open source command line DFU tool dfu-programmer also supports AVR chips, which run on Linux, Mac OSX and even Windows. If you have a PJRC Teensy you should use Teensy Loader.

DFU bootloader

To program AVR chip with DFU bootloader use FLIP or dfu-programmer. If you have a proper program command in Makefile just type this.

FLIP has two version of tool, GUI app and command line program. If you want GUI see tutorial section below. To use command line tool run this command. Note that you need to set PATH variable properly.

$ make -f Makefile.<variant> flip

To program with dfu-programmer run:

$ make -f Makefile.<variant> dfu

Teensy

If you have PJRC Teensy see instruction of Teensy Loader at: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/loader.html Or use this command if you have command line version of Teensy Loader installed.

$ make -f Makefile.<variant> teensy

Other programmer

You may want to use other you favorite programmer like avrdude with AVRISPmkII, Aruduino or USBasp. In that case you can still use make target program for build with configuring PROGRAM_CMD in Makefile.

$ make -f Makefile.<variant> program

FLIP GUI tutorial

On menu bar click Device -> Select, then. ATmega32u4.
On menu bar click Settings -> Communication -> USB, then click 'Open' button on 'USB Port Connection' dialog. At this point you'll see greyouted widgets on the app get colored and ready.
On menu bar click File -> Load HEX File, then select your firmware hex file on File Selector dialog.
On 'Operations Flow' panel click 'Run' button to load the firmware binary to the chip. Note that you should keep 'Erase', 'Blank Check', 'Program' and 'Verify' check boxes selected.
Re-plug USB cord or click 'Start Application' button to restart your controller. Done.

Makefile Options

1. MCU and Frequency.

MCU = atmega32u4       # Teensy 2.0
#MCU = at90usb1286      # Teensy++ 2.0
F_CPU = 16000000

2. Features

# for Atmel chip with DFU bootloader
PROGRAM_CMD = dfu-programmer $(MCU) flash $(TARGET).hex

# avrdude with other methods
PROGRAM_CMD = avrdude -p $(MCU) -c avrispmkII -P USB -U flash:w:$(TARGET).hex
PROGRAM_CMD = avrdude -p $(MCU) -c usbasp -U flash:w:$(TARGET).hex

Debuging

Use PJRC's hid_listen to see debug messages. You can use the tool for debug even if firmware use LUFA stack.

You will see output from firmware like this.
