+# Split-Cloud handwired keyboard
+
+The Split-Cloud is a split ortholinear 5x12 layout, forked from the Preonic and Nyquist keyboard models. The default layout adds extra options for some added game compatibility, two control keys for QEmu, and adds a steno layer based on the Planck example.

+Make example for this keyboard:

+This keyboard uses [Handedness by EEPROM](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/feature_split_keyboard?id=handedness-by-eeprom) as default, and must be configured once on each side. The make commands are:
+
+ make handwired/split_cloud:default:avrdude-split-left

+
+[QMK Toolbox](http://qmk.fm/toolbox) can also be used to set EEPROM handedness. Place the controller in bootloader mode and select menu option Tools -> EEPROM -> Set Left/Right Hand
