+Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
+
+ make mxss:default
+
+See [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/build_environment_setup.html) then the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/make_instructions.html) for more information.
+
+# Front LED Operation
+
+The MxSS PCB has 2 front RGB LEDs which has a separate brightness and mode of operation to the rest of the RGB LEDs. These are controlled through the supplied custom keycodes.
+
+There are 3 modes of operation:
+
+ - FLED_OFF - Front LEDs stay off
+ - FLED_RGB - Front LEDs are part of the standard RGB LED modes, only works correctly with rainbow modes (will fix on request)
+ - FLED_INDI - Top front LED represents Caps Lock status, bottom LED represents current layer
+
+Colors for FLED_INDI mode are hardcoded as hue/saturation values, the caps lock color can be found in mxss_frontled.h, the layer colors are defined in keymap.c (see default/keymap.c for example).
+
+## Custom Keycodes
+
+ - FLED_MOD - Cycle between the 3 modes (FLED_OFF -> FLED_RGB -> FLED_INDI)
+ - FLED_VAI - Increase front LED brightness
+ - FLED_VAD - Decrease front LED brightness
+
+ # Further Notes
+
+ As SAFE_RANGE is used for defining the custom keycodes seen above, please use NEW_SAFE_RANGE as the starting value for any custom keycodes in keymap.c, as per the example. \ No newline at end of file
