+The ErgoDone is a modified version of the ErgoDox, made by K.T.E.C., with pre-soldered components. It has different wiring and uses a SparkFun Pro Micro instead of Teensy.

+# Building the firmware
+
+[Install the build tools.](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_build_tools)
+
+In the root directory of the repository, build the firmware with a command like:
+
+ make ergodone:default
+
+For more information on the layout option and other ones, see the [`make` guide](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_make_guide).
+
+# Flashing the firmware onto the keyboard
+
+The ErgoDone uses a customized HID bootloader rather than the Teensy one. It doesn't need an OS driver, and the required actions before flashing are a little different than with an ErgoDox.
+
+1. To enter flash mode, disconnect the keyboard first. Then, on the left-hand device, in the top row, press and hold the two rightmost keys while reconnecting the keyboard.

+2. To flash the .hex file, use the `hid_bootloader_cli` utlity from the [TKG Toolkit](https://github.com/kairyu/tkg-toolkit) (as of 2017-10-03, only [this old version](https://github.com/kairyu/tkg-toolkit/blob/b14c67ca8bc84c07e5fc6b2e01ae4002b808243a/windows/bin/hid_bootloader_cli.exe) works under Windows):
