Standing on the shoulders of Giants

[ddeletic]

Hello everyone, apologies for the spam, but I thought some of you would be interested to learn that I have managed to build upon the work done here, and I have a chieved, what looks to me like a significant milestone.

Namely, I can now compile, link, download and execute simple sketches for nRF9160dk board from Arduino IDE.

I have a process in place to build the platform package compliant with Arduino Package Specification. Once the link to JSON file is added to Arduino preferences, the board is available in the Board Manager, and the package can be installed. Within seconds a simple script can be running on the board itself.

If you are interested, the code is here: https://github.com/ddeletic/Arduino-nrf9160dk. Even if you do not have the board, you can have a look at the process, and build sketches. Alternatively, I am always willing to provide more information.

All comments are welcome.

Thanks,
Dejan
