ZMK Firmware is an open source (MIT) keyboard
firmware built on the [Zephyr™ Project](https://zephyrproject.org/) Real Time Operating System (RTOS).
The goal is to provide a powerful, featureful keyboard firmware that is free
of licensing issues that prevent upstream BLE support as a first-class
feature.
firmware built on the [Zephyr™ Project](https://zephyrproject.org/) Real Time Operating System (RTOS). ZMK's goal is to provide a modern, wireless, and powerful firmware free of licensing issues.
## Features
At this point, ZMK is still missing many features compared to popular firmware such as QMK. Here is a table comparing supported ZMK and QMK features:
