What Higround Forge is
Higround Forge is browser software for configuring supported Higround keyboards and mice. It runs on a PC in Chromium-based browsers such as Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, and Opera, with no installation, login, or background process. Forge stores the latest settings in a device’s onboard memory after the browser closes. Supported products listed are the Summit 65 keyboard, Basecamp 65HE keyboard, and Yuma mice. Summit 65 options include per-key and side LED lighting, Base and Fn layer keybinds, and modifier adjustments. Basecamp 65HE provides actuation-point, rapid-trigger sensitivity, and SOCD controls. Yuma settings cover DPI stages, sensitivity, polling rate up to 8KHz, debounce, Motion Sync, lift-off distance, keybinds, Ripple Control, angle snapping, and sleep timer. Users can create, import, and export up to 10 profiles. Forge is free, with no free trial. Other Basecamp models use separate software.
