‘Best Practices’ for nRF51822 in Eclipse #IDE for #OSX @EclipseFdn
This guide was written last year about a month after the release of the Mars Platform for Eclipse, but should be relevant at least through the release of Neon later this year, and likely beyond. Either way it’s a good place for Eclipse developers to begin if you’re working with the nRF51822 in OS X.
The goal of this post is to document “best practices” in setting up nRF51822 projects in Eclipse. Through many (many) attempts, I was able to successfully build projects based on starting with an example project from the nRF51 SDK.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, or even use Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for MakeCode, CircuitPython, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
