AutoShift in ZMK Firmware
Auto Shift is a feature in ZMK firmware that allows you to type capital letters and special characters by holding down a key slightly longer, without needing to press the Shift key.

Key Features
Configuration: Auto Shift is enabled and configured in ZMK using YAML files. You set a threshold time (in milliseconds) for how long a key must be held to activate the shifted character.
Hold Time: You can customize the hold time to suit your typing speed, ensuring that the Auto Shift feature activates comfortably.
Selective Activation: You can specify which keys will use Auto Shift, allowing for flexibility and preventing accidental shifts.
Benefits
Convenience: Simplifies typing by reducing the need for simultaneous key presses.
Ergonomics: Helps reduce finger strain by minimizing the use of the Shift key.
Customization: Allows extensive personalization to fit individual preferences and typing habits.
