### Acknowledgements
* Solartempest - the image on this page and most of the code is either copied directly or inspired by their fork. [Solartempest's fork.](https://github.com/solartempest/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/solartempest/sofle).
* [Keyhive fork](https://github.com/keyhive/qmk_firmware) defined all of the board settings.
# Supported Keymaps
The keyhive schematic has been slightly modified compared to the open source sofle and not all keymaps are compatible.
* **default**: Basic functionality, no rgb, no VIA.
* [keyhive_via](../keymaps/keyhive_via/readme.md) - Includes rgblighting and special support for remapping encoders with VIA.
* **Other**: may work but backwards compatibility is not guaranteed or tested.
# VIA Support
As of 1.3.1, the VIA tool does not support Keyhive/Sofle V2 out of the box.
See [keyhive_via](../keymaps/keyhive_via/readme.md) for details about configuring and using VIA.
# Compiling
Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
make sofle/keyhive:default
## Flashing
Flash using the correct command below (or use QMK Toolbox). These commands can be mixed if, for example, you have an Elite C on the left and a pro micro on the right.
Press reset button on the keyboard when asked.
Disconnect the first half, connect the second one and repeat the process.
# for Pro Micro-based builds
make sofle/keyhive:default:avrdude-split-left
make sofle/keyhive:default:avrdude-split-right
# for Elite C or DFU bootloader builds
make sofle/keyhive:default:dfu-split-left
make sofle/keyhive:default:dfu-split-right
