Flashing CircuitPython onto the nRF52840 development kit

Hackaday user manojroy wanted to flash CircuitPython on an nRF52840 development kit but couldn’t find any articles to help. So they wrote their own tutorial.

After with some tweaking and taking help from community. I was able to flash CircuitPython in the nRF52840 DK.

The nRF52840 DK is a versatile single-board development kit for Bluetooth Low Energy, Bluetooth mesh, Thread, Zigbee, 802.15.4, ANT and 2.4 GHz proprietary applications on the nRF52840 SoC. It is the recommended Nordic development kit for Amazon Sidewalk. It also supports development on the nRF52811 SoC.

The nRF52840 DK can also be used for Matter over Thread where Thread is used for transport and Bluetooth LE for commissioning. Matter devices based on Thread are required to feature Bluetooth LE concurrently to enable adding new devices to a network.
