We are all used to Arduino IDE and alike where the flash button automatically transfers our text onto a blinking light on the Uno.
But whats actually happening behind the scene? We will look into that in this evening course.
Further the basics of VSCode will be covered, and the useful tool known as platformIO, that enables us to structure bigger and cooler projects for embedded code.
Agenda for the day
We will start out with a presentation,
During the evening we will touch on the following topics:
- Bootloaders101 what do they do & why do we need them?
- AVR buildchain, and some general cases.
- Making libraries for arduino and platformIO
- Some cool examples and ideas on how you kan use this knowledge
When
The Platformio course will be held on Thursday the 19th of November, approximately from 1630-1930.
Where
The course will take place at Aalborg University at Frederik Bayers vej 7.
The exact room will be revealed when we get closer to the event
