Hi, I've just learned here that I need to switch from Arduino IDE (which I am familiar with) to VSCode / PlatformIO (which I'm both new to).
For Linux users, VSCode is hard to set up, e.g. it does not find the PlatformIO IDE extension in the marketplace. But I think there is a solution: As far as I understand, PlatformIO (core) has a CLI (command line interface), and Linux users usually are not afraid of the command line. :-)
I'm not experienced enough in microcontroller programming to contribute source code anyway, so the editing functions of VSCode are not important in my case. For Configuration.h, any text editor will do. :-)
As I wrote above, I'm also new to PlatformIO, and I could not figure out how I start the build process. Can somebody help me ?
Thanks.
