Hey, if you are a fan of Visual Studio Code I wrote an article on how to use it to build and flash your Particles in Hackster : [image] [image] Use Visual Studio Code for your Particle Development Needs Use this lightweight, cross-platform editor while developing Particle software. By G…

That issue with needing to cater for different tools seperately will be sorted with Libraries 2.0 and IDEs 2.0, which also make importing other libraries a lot easier.

Thanks for the info @ScruffR , that’s a very good news! Can’t wait to use IDEs 2.0 :wink:

getting curious now where you got that info and when is the ETA for IDE 2.0 :neutral_face:

@gusgonnet , as Elites we do get some peeks behind the scenes what’s going on and coming up and one of the bigger tasks Particle is currently working on is this Library 2.0 which is already undergoing some “early beta” testing and is a basis for IDE 2.0. There is no official ETA but it’s rather high…

[image] ScruffR: as Elites we do get some peeks behind the scenes what's going on and coming up cool! that's what I want to be when I grow up!!! :stuck_out_tongue: thanks

done, many thanks for the suggestion!

Is this guide still accurate? I have lots of build issues when I try this. I guess it might be the IDE naming everything with a .ino extension and VSCode naming everything with a .cpp extension. I know there are caveats when switching between them, but I don’t know what they are. VSCode won’t fl…

If .ino poses a problem, just use .cpp and add #include <Particle.h> and function prototypes in all your .cpp files.

still valid. I’ve been using it almost every day for the last 5 months. if you include a library please flatten the directory structure so all lib files (.cpp and .h) are next to your .ino files. Gustavo.
