- For gcc options, inspect `tmk_core/tool/chibios/chibios.mk`. For instance, I enabled `-Wno-missing-field-initializers`, because TMK common bits generated a lot of warnings on that.
Also pay attention to `-O0` (enabled for debugging); for deployment use `-O2`.
- USB string descriptors are messy. I did not find a way to cleanly generate the right structures from actual strings, so the definitions in individual keyboards' `config.h` are ugly as heck.
- There are some random constants left so far, e.g. 5ms sleep between calling `keyboard_task`, or 1.5sec wait for USB init, in `main.c`. There should be no such in `usb_main.c` (the main USB stack). Everything is based on timers/interrupts/kernel scheduling (well except `keyboard_task`), so no periodically called things (again, except `keyboard_task`, which is just how TMK is designed).
- It is easy to add some code for testing (e.g. blink LED, do stuff on button press, etc...) - just create another thread in `main.c`, it will run independently of the keyboard business.
