 ```
 :::note
 The shared configuration in `my_awesome_split_board.conf` is only applied when you are building with a [`zmk-config` folder](build-flash#building-from-zmk-config-folder) and when it is present at `config/my_awesome_split_board.conf`. If you are not using a `zmk-config` folder, you will need to include the shared configuration in both `my_awesome_split_board_left.conf` and `my_awesome_split_board_right.conf` files.
