Hey @rei_vilo,

I was able to add support for the redbear duo in Workbench with the following:

```bash
cd ~/.particle/toolchains/deviceOS
git clone https://github.com/redbear/firmware redbearduo
cd redbearduo
git submodule update --init --recursive

mkdir .workbench
nano .workbench/manifest.json

```

Put the following contents in `.workbench/manifest.json`:

```auto
{
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "toolchains": [
        {
            "firmware": "deviceOS@source",
            "compilers": "gcc-arm@5.3.1",
            "debuggers": "openocd@0.11.2-adhoc6ea4372.0",
            "platforms": [1],
            "scripts": "buildscripts@1.9.2",
            "tools": "buildtools@1.1.1"
        }
    ],
    "platforms": [
        {
            "id": 1,
            "name": "duo",
            "generation": 1
        }
    ]
}

```

In Workbench I set the `Custom Device OS Location` to `~/.particle/toolchains/deviceOS/redbearduo`

Next, I opened created a new Workbench project and I selected the `deviceOS@source` firmware and the `duo` device:

After that, I was able to compile the project for the redbear duo.
