Are You Hungry to Start Soldering?
This Snagpad is the 3rd round of DIY macropad kits using the Snagpad PCB designed by Don (Flehrad) from The Board Podcast.
The PCB requires lots of soldering as there are many through-hole components and a Micro-B pro-micro controller. It is also VIA and QMK compatible so you easily program macros and outputs.
It's the perfect practice kit!
Flashing the Kit
To flash the pro-micro you will need to download QMK Toolbox and the VIA Software
