This is a question - not an issue.. Not sure where to ask it. Sorry if it is not the correct forum.

Is it possible to use the pi pico mcu based pro micro form factor controllers instead of the atmega pro micro. I know the mcu operating voltage is different. Has anyone used it with the pcb here?

eg controller here https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805943704472.html

Yes- with the use of the QMK converter tools: https://docs.qmk.fm/#/feature_converters?id=supported-converters

The particular board you link falls under "rp2040_ce"

Hello, I also bought those uC It is my first keyboard and I am totally lost. Is there any guide what I need to do in order to convert the firmware? Or do you have the converted uf2 file?
