PlatformIO Reviews and details

• Help Needed with Tauri Desktop App for NFC Card Enrollment on ESP32

  For the ESP32 in read mode, we've successfully developed a project using PlatformIO that accepts the key during build time and stores it in memory. Source: 8 months ago

• It's 2023 why embedded development is so cumbersome?(rant)

  Check out Zephyr OS and Platform IO. Zephyr is part of the Linux foundation and has similarities to Linux with how it performs hardware abstraction (device tree). Platform IO integrates with other frameworks including mbed and Arduino. Source: 8 months ago

• Debug program using PlatformIO and avr-stub

  PlatformIO together with avr-stub can be used to do source level debugging but there are some caveats. Source: 11 months ago

• Do you know some sbc or soc that can be programed to run rtos and c++ on top?

  Look into https://platformio.org/, it can abstract over a few RTOSes, and can show you which OSes work with which chips/boards. Source: 11 months ago

• Newbie question on identifying board in IDE

  If the HW looks like it works, you could also try alternate programming software. (e.g. TinyGo or PlatformIO). Source: 12 months ago

• Issue with Adafruit ESP32-S3: COM port switching, etc.

  You might have better luck with PlatformIO than the Arduino IDE; it's better at automatically choosing the serial port, though I can't say I've used it under Windows. Source: about 1 year ago

• Made some progress on the Chessboard this week

  My other suggestion takes more work but will make your life oh so much better. Professionally I have used and highly recommend. https://platformio.org/ which is free! Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Best books to learn embedded systems?

  Will you be doing embedded Linux? Embedded RTOS? Bare metal? Microcontrollers? SoC (say, FPGA with a hard processor core)? You can do a lot with QEMU. https://bootlin.com/ has a lot of great, free training material. https://bootlin.com/doc/training/embedded-linux-qemu/embedded-linux-qemu-labs.pdf is one of my favorites. Learning to cross-compile, do embedded debugging, the process of booting an embedded... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Flash a bootloader on Ender 3 S1 Pro

  I found this in the S1 Pro Manual. I haven't tried this yet but it seems like you could just get the S1 Pro firmware and use platformio to build and upload it directly to the printer. Just incase you want to go that route, here's the Marlin documentation on how to use platformio to build and upload the firmware. Source: about 1 year ago

• ESP32-CAM connection without the USB device

  Once it's connected you use whatever programming tool you're building with. The Arduino IDE will work if you install ESP32 support. There'll be an option to upload firmware. I use PlatformIO from the command line; it has options to upload when you build firmware. Fundamentally these use esptool.py to flash the firmware to the board (it can also erase the board's flash storage, read it back, and do a few other... Source: about 1 year ago

• Teensyduino (C++) or Micropython for robot control

  Using Teensyduino (the Teensy flavor of the nominal Arduino IDE) is fine for small projects, but I highly recommend considering a switch to the PlatformIO + VSCode environment. Much more productive! Source: about 1 year ago

• python version stuck at 3.9.7

  So I'm guessing you're using the PlatformIO IDE? And you installed the new version of python specifically using the process provided by this IDE? Source: over 1 year ago

• What's the best book and microcontroller to learn embedded design?

  Use Platformio with a Weact STMF401 MCU. You can either go bare metal or Arduino framework. \ Https://platformio.org. Source: over 1 year ago

• Device to Display Guest WiFi Password

  The easiest way to get started with ESP32/Arduino is using Visual Studio Code with PlatformIO. Inkplate has some documentation on their official website and their Github repositories how to get started. Source: over 1 year ago

• DIY: I've built a music box for the 2nd x-mas of my son

  To develop on the Arduino, I use PlatformIO. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• I Over-Engineered a Fast Fourier Transform for Arduino

  Probably not, unless you're willing to stretch the definition of 'real time' or 'image'. The classic Arduino Uno processor aka the ATMega328 does about 1 million 8-bit instructions per second per MHz of clock[0]; the Uno iirc has a 8mhz crystal. Even for the contrived example of a 1MP webcam that outputs uint8 grayscale values, you'd only be able to read it at about 8 frames per second, max, much less do anything... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Man, Rust has me addicted!

  If you want a more out of the box experience writing modern embedded, I would suggest to try https://platformio.org as package manager and build platform. It supports tons of boards, libraries and frameworks. \ 2 days ago, I had an art installation borked at the other side of the country. It was literally the following to get going: - hook up laptop with SSH and micro-USB connector to the NodeMCU. - Install... Source: over 1 year ago

• dev/Serial0/Serial1 error on Teensy 4.1

  How are you compiling? You may want to try to use https://platformio.org/ to compile in the CLI. I find I get a bit more of a verbose output than using the Teensyduino editor. Source: over 1 year ago

• Arduino IDE 2.0

  [PlatformIO](https://platformio.org) has taken care of that so thoroughly for them, maybe they only think their IDE is worthwhile for people who don't want to use VS Code? - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Arduino Alternatives

  The next option would be to use an IDE that can compile and load your program without the Arduino IDE. This is a lot of work to setup, but luckily people have taken care of this work for you. Head over to platformio.org and dive in. Source: over 1 year ago

• Without Arduino.

  Checkout vscode and platform io. It replaces the annoying Arduino IDE. I'm using this with c++ and intellicense plugin and works great. https://platformio.org/. Source: over 1 year ago
