-# Local CLI
-
-If you do not want to use the global CLI there is a local CLI bundled with `qmk_firmware`. You can find it in `qmk_firmware/bin/qmk`. You can run the `qmk` command from any directory and it will always operate on that copy of `qmk_firmware`.
-
-**Example**:
-
-```
-$ ~/qmk_firmware/bin/qmk hello
-Ψ Hello, World!
-```
-
-## Local CLI Limitations
-
-There are some limitations to the local CLI compared to the global CLI:
-
-* The local CLI does not support `qmk setup` or `qmk clone`
-* The local CLI always operates on the same `qmk_firmware` tree, even if you have multiple repositories cloned.
-* The local CLI does not run in a virtualenv, so it's possible that dependencies will conflict
-
-# CLI Commands
-
-## `qmk cformat`
-
-*dev mode*
-
-This command formats C code using clang-format. Run it with no arguments to format all core code, or pass filenames on the command line to run it on specific files.

-**Usage**:
-
-```
-qmk cformat [file1] [file2] [...] [fileN]
-```
-
-## `qmk compile`
-
-This command allows you to compile firmware from any directory. You can compile JSON exports from <https://config.qmk.fm>, compile keymaps in the repo, or compile the keyboard in the current working directory.
-
-**Usage for Configurator Exports**:
-
-```
-qmk compile <configuratorExport.json>
-```
-
-**Usage for Keymaps**:
-
-```
-qmk compile -kb <keyboard_name> -km <keymap_name>
-```
-
-**Usage in Keyboard Directory**:  
-
-Must be in keyboard directory with a default keymap, or in keymap directory for keyboard, or supply one with `--keymap <keymap_name>`
-```
-qmk compile
-```
-
-**Example**:
-```
-$ qmk config compile.keymap=default
-$ cd ~/qmk_firmware/keyboards/planck/rev6
-$ qmk compile
-Ψ Compiling keymap with make planck/rev6:default
-...
-```
-or with optional keymap argument

-...
-```
-
-**Usage in Layout Directory**:  
-
-Must be under `qmk_firmware/layouts/`, and in a keymap folder.
-```

-
-## `qmk flash`
-
-This command is similar to `qmk compile`, but can also target a bootloader. The bootloader is optional, and is set to `:flash` by default.
-To specify a different bootloader, use `-bl <bootloader>`. Visit <https://docs.qmk.fm/#/flashing>
-for more details of the available bootloaders.
-
-**Usage for Configurator Exports**:
-
-```
-qmk flash <configuratorExport.json> -bl <bootloader>
-```

-```
-qmk doctor [-y] [-n]
-```
-
-**Examples**:
-
-Check your environment for problems and prompt to fix them:
-
-    qmk doctor

-Check your environment and automatically fix any problems found:
-
-    qmk doctor -y
-
-Check your environment and report problems only:
-
-    qmk doctor -n
-
-## `qmk json-keymap`
-
-Creates a keymap.c from a QMK Configurator export.
-
-**Usage**:

-
-## `qmk kle2json`
-
-This command allows you to convert from raw KLE data to QMK Configurator JSON. It accepts either an absolute file path, or a file name in the current directory. By default it will not overwrite `info.json` if it is already present. Use the `-f` or `--force` flag to overwrite.
-
-**Usage**:
-
-```
-qmk kle2json [-f] <filename>

 The QMK CLI operates using the subcommand pattern made famous by git. The main `qmk` script is simply there to setup the environment and pick the correct entrypoint to run. Each subcommand is a self-contained module with an entrypoint (decorated by `@cli.subcommand()`) that performs some action and returns a shell returncode, or None.
 
-*Tip*: Enable dev mode by `qmk config user.developer=True`
+## Developer mode:
+
+If you intend to maintain keyboards and/or contribute to QMK, you can enable the CLI's "Developer" mode:
+
+`qmk config user.developer=True`
+
+This will allow you to see all available subcommands.  
+**Note:** You will have to install additional requirements:  
+```bash
+python3 -m pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
