# Bartlesplitt ![Bartlesplit with the hub in the 3x6 setup](https://i.imgur.com/IoMpwylh.png) Bartlesplit is based on [Cheapino](https://github.com/tompi/cheapino) by Tompi. The original idea was to build a Cheapino with hot swaps, but it evolved into something more! At the same time I was working on Bartlesplit, a friend of mine suggested that we try to make a splithub, letting us avoid having the Pro Micro directly on the board. This is mostly a design choice, making each split less clutered. We have called the hub [The Japanese Connection](https://github.com/Kyrremann/the-japanese-connection) since it's relying on the Japanese duplex matrix. One of the main feature of the board is the built-in tenting, so you don't need to make a case to get simple tenting. * Keyboard Maintainer: [Kyrre Havik](https://github.com/Kyrremann) * Hardware Supported: Rev 1, Pro Micro * Hardware Availability: https://github.com/Kyrremann/bartlesplit Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment): make minimon/bartlesplit:default Flashing example for this keyboard: make minimon/bartlesplit:default:flash See the [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_build_tools) and the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_make_guide) for more information.
