##Building firmware: At console, run make. You will need AVR GCC installed.

##Building software: It's a Chrome web app. Install it like a normal dev app.

##Building hardware: Send v4 Gerbers to a PCB fab and have fun with fiddly soldering. If you want a little less fiddling, use the seeed_bom.csv file along with the Gerbers and use Seedstudio's Fusion PCBA service. You will need to add a Molex USB A Male connector and a Raphnet Nunchuck connector.

Altium Designer was used, open TataconUSB.PrjPcb as the main file.

Program the HID bootloader and clock fuses via make init and an SPI programmer. From there, program by hitting the hardware reset button, then make flash.
