(Colemak/Dvorak/QWERTY), platform toggling (Windows/Mac), and other
experimental features.

## Caveats
In its current state, this keymap is fairly Mac-centric. Some of the features
implemented in the Mac layers have not yet been ported to the corresponding
Windows layers.
## Building
To build this layout, open a command window in the root directory of this
repository and run:
```bash
make ergodox_ez:nfriend
```
This will create a `.build/ergodox_ez_nfriend.hex` file which can be flashed
using the [Teensy loader](https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/loader.html). After the
`.hex` file has been loaded into Teensy, the keyboard can be reprogrammed by
pressing the bottom-right key of the right half of the keyboard and the
top-right key of the left half (the <kbd>RESET</kbd> key in the screenshot
above).
## Developing
Use the template in `./template.c` to help create new layers quickly.
This layout was originally based on [this EZ Configurator
configuration](https://configure.ergodox-ez.com/ergodox-ez/layouts/x9MWL/latest/0).
