How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?
I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".

Be sure to click on the "show more layers" button to reveal all my layers.
The layout is primary Dvorak based. Layer 0 is my primary typing layer when the OS is set to Qwerty/EN-US. Layer 1 is for the times that the OS is set to US-Dvorak (such as on a laptop, or a computer with a "regular" keyboard connected). This is not Programmer's Dvorak-based, just the standard Dvorak Simplified. Layers 2 and 3 are my "programming" layers for access to various symbols on the right hand, and various ways to move the text cursor around on the left hand.
My general concept was to minimize the amount of stretching away from home row, and to minimize the usage of my pinky fingers. The "programming" layers are designed to be easily accessed by holding the layer toggle keys with my thumbs and then hitting various keys with fingers on the same hand.
I like the sequential number row of Dvorak Simplified because that's what I learned years ago, and with the columnular layout of the ErgoDox (and other matrix-like layouts), I can easily touch type the number row.
