+## Quickstart
+If you just want to test a few layouts, the archive [s60-x_precompiled.zip](s60-x_precompiled.zip) contains pre-compiled .hex-files for all available keymaps. Not all of them are tested.
+You only need to flash them onto your keyboard, which is explained below, there's no need to setup a build environment. For a full list

+## List of included Keymaps
+
+Several versions of keymaps are available in advance but you are recommended to define your favorite layout yourself.
+To define your own keymap, copy the [default keymap template](/quantum/template/keymaps/default) directory into the `keymaps` directory and start modifying the `keymap.c` file. Some options might require you to change the `config.h` or `Makefile` as well, refer to the main documentation for more information on those.
+If you want to later merge your finalised keymap into this repository to make it available for everyone, make sure to also modify the `readme.md` in your keymap directory to show a visual version of your keymap.
+
+Here's a list of the standard layouts that are provided with the precompiled .hex-files.
### 0 Initial explanations
The █████ blocks on the layouts hides the switch positions that do not exist physically on the PCB. If you feel like hacking the keyboard and adding new keys, those are the positions that can be used. You'll have to modify the [keymap_common.h](keymap_common.h) file for that.
