In my ever-continuing quest to do interesting things with custom keyboards, I recently had the idea to take the left half of my [Ferris sweep](https://github.com/davidphilipbarr/Sweep) and configure it specifically for use in the game [Rainbow Six Siege](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Clancy%27s_Rainbow_Six).

This post isn't much of a tutorial, just a showcase of the end result.

The actual firmware file lives [here](https://github.com/ewpratten/qmk_firmware/blob/d6eda8f6a96b2f1753cd59cbb161763500a8afb5/keyboards/ferris/keymaps/ewpratten/keymap.c#L82-L87). In short, the QMK layout definition behind this is as follows:
|
|
|
|
```c
|
|
[_RAINBOW] = LAYOUT(
|
|
KC_ESC, KC_Q, KC_W, KC_E, KC_T, KC_NO, KC_NO, KC_NO, KC_NO, KC_NO,
|
|
KC_LSFT, KC_A, KC_S, KC_D, KC_G, KC_NO, KC_NO, KC_NO, KC_NO, KC_NO,
|
|
KC_LCTL, KC_Z, KC_X, KC_C, KC_V, KC_NO, KC_NO, KC_NO, KC_NO, KC_NO,
|
|
KC_SPACE, KC_X, KC_NO, KC_NO
|
|
)
