## Installing CircuitPython Firmware on BBQ20KBD
Installation is like for any RP2040 board, you need to get into the UF2 mode, in our case power the BBQ20KBD while pressing the top left button (boot button).
Download CircuitPython UF2 file of your choice and copy that file RPI-RP2 drive.
If ever you regret your choice, the official UF2 firmware is [available](https://github.com/solderparty/i2c_puppet/releases).
## BBQ20KBD running CircuitPython firmware
You now have a very small keyboard running CircuitPython and many possibilities.
You can scan those keys using the keypad library, the top right button will need to have a special treatment.
You can also try controling the backlight and plug an I2C sensor, an I2C screen or both via the Stemma QT connector.
Of course you can make your BBQ20KBD act as a keyboard by using adafruit usb-hid library.
If you feel advanturous you could even try using KMK library, or implement a library to handle the mouse button.
