Open a Terminal or MSYS2 MinGW window and leave it open for the remainder of this guide. Inside that window run these two commands: - git clone https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware.git - cd qmk_firmware +```shell +git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware.git +cd qmk_firmware +``` ?> If you already know [how to use GitHub](getting_started_github.md), we recommend that you create and clone your own fork instead.
