# QMK CLI
This page describes how to setup and use the QMK CLI.
# Overview
The QMK CLI makes building and working with QMK keyboards easier. We have provided a number of commands to help you work with QMK:
* `qmk compile-json`
# Setup
Simply add the `qmk_firmware/bin` directory to your `PATH`. You can run the `qmk` commands from any directory.
```
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/qmk_firmware/bin
```
You may want to add this to your `.profile`, `.bash_profile`, `.zsh_profile`, or other shell startup scripts.
# Commands
## `qmk compile-json`
This command allows you to compile JSON files you have downloaded from <https://config.qmk.fm>.
**Usage**:
```
qmk compile-json mine.json
```
