Some sacrifices needed to be made, hence this layout is not-quite-neo. - -## Use case -My use case is simple: - -* I want to use neo2 (or a keymap as close as possible) on any computer I can plug my keyboards in. Because installing the neo2 SW driver is often not a acceptable solution. -* Since most computers I work on (colleagues, family, etc.) use a de-DE keymap, I can not use the official neo2 implementation, because it relies on a us layout and I often times do not even posses the administration rights to change that. -* neo2 makes use of most of the keys of a standard 104 key keyboard, especially for supporting the planck I needed to deviate from the original neo2 layout in order to fit everything I wanted. - -Therefore, I put all reusable code in the users/not-quite-neo directory and created a custom not-quite-neo keymap for the planck and the ergodox infinity keyboard respectively. - -## Pitfalls -Mind, since neo2 is a SW driver supported layout it offers a lot of features that are hard to support in hardware (especially the fancy utf stuff with math symbols and greek letters etc.). - -Right now this implementation only incompletely supports neo2 layers 1 to 4. - -The biggest difference is probably the support for the German Umlauts ä, ö, ü and the ß. Since we rely on a smaller number of keys some glyphs needed to be created otherwise. See the implementation in [nqn-basic-layout.h](nqn-basic-layout.h) for details. - -## Keyboards and keymaps - -You can find the *not-quite-neo* keymap for the ergodox infinity under [qmk_firmware/keyboards/ergodox_infinity/keymaps/not-quite-neo/](../../keyboards/ergodox_infinity/keymaps/not-quite-neo/readme.md). Respectively the keymap for the planck resides in [qmk_firmware/keyboards/planck/keymaps/not-quite-neo/](../../keyboards/planck/keymaps/not-quite-neo/readme.md) - .
