+
+A compact 40% (12x4) ortholinear keyboard kit made and KPRepublic on AliExpress.
+
+Keyboard Maintainer: [QMK Community](https://github.com/qmk)  
+Hardware Supported: Atmega32A  
+Hardware Availability: [AliExpress](https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/jj40-Custom-Mechanical-Keyboard-40-PCB-programmed-40-planck-layouts-bface-firmware-gh40/3034003_32828781103.html)
+
+Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
+
+    make jj40-program
+
+See [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/build_environment_setup.html) then the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/make_instructions.html) for more information.
+
+Note that this is a complete replacement for the firmware, so you won't be
+using Bootmapper Client to change any keyboard settings, since not all the
+USB report options are supported.
+
+In addition you may need the AVR toolchain and `bootloadHID` for flashing:
+
+```
+$ brew cask install crosspack-avr
+$ brew install --HEAD https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robertgzr/homebrew-tap/master/bootloadhid.rb
+```
+
+In order to use the `./program` script, which can reboot the board into
+the bootloader, you'll need Python 2 with PyUSB installed:
+
+```
+$ pip install pyusb
+```
+
+If you prefer, you can just build it and flash the firmware directly with
+`bootloadHID` if you boot the board while holding down `L_Ctrl` to keep it
+in the bootloader:
+
+```
+$ make jj40
+$ bootloadHID -r jj40_default.hex
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+1. Try plugging the board in while pressing `L_Ctrl`. This will force it
+   to boot only the bootloader without loading the firmware. Once this is
+   done, just reflash the board with the original firmware.
+2. Sometimes USB hubs can act weird, so try connecting the board directly
+   to your computer or plugging/unplugging the USB hub.
