## What it is
A Python module and CLI tool that parses QMK and ZMK keyboard keymap files and renders them as SVG diagrams, with support for layers, hold-taps, and combos. It is also available as a Streamlit web application for interactive use.

## Use cases
- visualize my zmk keymap as a diagram
- draw qmk keymap layers with combos
- generate svg images of keyboard layouts from firmware config
- document my split keyboard keymap with hold-taps
- automatically parse keymap.c or .keymap files into diagrams
- create keymap documentation for my github repo

## When to choose
- you use QMK or ZMK firmware and want automatic keymap visualization
- your keymap uses advanced features like hold-taps and combos that other tools render poorly
- you want a programmatic, repeatable keymap drawing workflow instead of manual editors
- you need customizable SVG output with custom icons and arbitrary physical layouts

## When to avoid
- you want an interactive drag-and-drop keymap editor like KLE
- you need to design keyboard cases or physical layouts from scratch
- you don't use QMK or ZMK firmware

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: data-visualization, parser, cli, documentation
- domain: developer-tools, hardware
- platform: cli, python, cross-platform
