ZMK-ThinkPad documentation

ZMK-ThinkPad is under development and has not reached a public release. These pages record the current firmware, tested hardware, specifications, and work in progress.

Current status​

  • T430 and T470 development-kit targets build today. T430 includes its TrackPoint. T470 currently supports only the keyboard matrix.
  • T430 and T60 run on the custom Revision A controller. T60 TrackPoint movement and all three buttons work. The T430 TrackPoint moves, but its keyboard assembly has not reported button presses.
  • Revision A is developmental groundwork. It established first-time programming, USB/UF2 updates, serial debugging, and the bring-up lessons that inform Revision B. Its backlight remains disabled in release firmware.
  • Revision B, beginning with T470, is design work only. It has not been implemented, fabricated, or validated.
  • Architecture contains hardware design, programming infrastructure, and validated design decisions.
  • SPEC contains authoritative behavioral and product contracts.

For current behavior, read the transport and profile contract. For the remaining planned adapter documentation, start with the universal Revision B connector and T470 adapter.

The source code, issue tracker, and complete project history are available in the GitHub repository.
