[quote user="oliver0804"]1. The course mentions how to build Zephyr custom driver code, in fact, I don't need to build the driver, the introduction may just be a library of algorithms.[/quote]

You don't need to build new drivers but you will need to port whatever driver that is not in Zephyr. Depending on what driver you need, I would recommend checking the libraries available in Zephyr first. There might already be support.

[quote user="oliver0804"]2. I have found github.com/.../prj.conf
This github guide shows how to do cpp compilation, but what I want is to keep using main.c, not to change to main.cpp, and only call libraries use cpp.[/quote]

If the library/driver is not available in Zephyr OS, then you will need to port it.

You might get a better answer on this question in the Zephyr community on Discord

Thank you for your reply, there are a couple of questions in the course you provided that are bothering me.

1. The course mentions how to build Zephyr custom driver code, in fact, I don't need to build the driver, the introduction may just be a library of algorithms.

2. I have found github.com/.../prj.conf
This github guide shows how to do cpp compilation, but what I want is to keep using main.c, not to change to main.cpp, and only call libraries use cpp.

So what I want to ask is whether there is any customized cpp file to add instructions, such as prj.conf need to do CONFIG_CPP=y, or CMakeLists.txt file need to do add such instructions.

Hello,

[quote user=""]I'm wondering if there are any tutorials or guides available that can help with integrating Adafruit libraries into a Zephyr project on the nRF52 platform. [/quote]

You should have a look at our intermediate nRF Connect SDK course in our Developer Academy. This has its own chapter on driver development.

There is also more information under Development model and contributions - Adding your own code. and Device Driver Model introduction.

Kind regards,
Øyvind
