Flashing TMK to Pro Micro for ADB converter

Hi guys, I am building a converter for an M0116 and it seems I will have to use TMK. Physically building the converter is super easy (for me, anyway) but I am not quite sure how I should flash it. Is it as simple as with Soarer's firmware where I just download one .hex file and flash it with avrdude (I am running Manjaro Linux)? Or is there more to it? Thanks!

I think you just download the hex file and flash it after shorting the pads to change the mode, (personally i've used Atmel FLIP)

Where do I download the hex file? I skimmed the Github page (for the ADB converter) and it was talking about building one from scratch.

You set your layout, generate the hex here and download and flash with AVRdude

Awesome, will give it a shot, thanks :)

One question though, which pin on the Pro Micro is PD0? I think the Github guide is for a Teensy but I am not certain.

Pin 2 on the pro micro is PD1, and pin 3 is PD0
