9 ## Building
10
11 Download or clone the whole firmware and navigate to the keyboards/planck folder. Once your dev env is setup, you'll be able to type `make` to generate your .hex - you can then use `make dfu` to program your PCB once you hit the reset button. 
12
13 Depending on which keymap you would like to use, you will have to compile slightly differently.
14
15 ### Default
16 To build with the default keymap, simply run `make default`.
17
18 ### Other Keymaps
19 Several version of keymap are available in advance but you are recommended to define your favorite layout yourself. To define your own keymap create file named `<name>.c` in the keymaps folder, and see keymap document (you can find in top readme.md) and existent keymap files.
20
21 To build the firmware binary hex file with a keymap just do `make` with a keymap like this:
22
23 ```
24 $ make [default|jack|<name>]
25 ```
26
27 Keymaps follow the format **__\<name\>.c__** and are stored in the `keymaps` folder.
