# Sweeq ![sweeq](https://i.imgur.com/TGSyHHxh.png) *Sweeq is a Ferris Sweep clone that uses diodes, instead of the latter's direct pin matrix.* The primary goal is to free up the SDA/SCL pins so they can be used by auxiliary devices such as a trackball, trackpoint or an OLED screen. Other than the diode changes and the ability to use hotswap sockets, this keyboard is identical to the original Sweep. * Keyboard Maintainer: [@idank](https://github.com/idank) * Hardware Supported: [sweeq](https://github.com/idank/keyboards/tree/main/sweeq) * Hardware Availability: *[holykeebs](https://holykeebs.com)* Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment): make idank/sweeq:default Flashing example for this keyboard: make idank/sweeq:default:flash See the [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_build_tools) and the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_make_guide) for more information.
