If I go to “Particle: Install Library”, type neopixel it adds the library to my lib folder, however this shows the following error in my workspace:
Import line:
#include "neopixel/neopixel.h";
Error:
#include errors detected. Please update your includePath. Squiggles are disabled for this translation unit (/Users/nickjonas/Projects/raincheck/src/raincheck.ino).C/C++(1696)
cannot open source file "neopixel/neopixel.h"C/C++(1696)
It however will work with the dotstar library:
#include "dotstar/dotstar.h";
Do I need to update my includePath as the error says, and how do I go about doing that?
