Writing my own code.

[faizi_968]

Hi everyone,

I started working on nordic nRF52832 DK and tested out some examples. I think i am done with the examples now and am looking to write my own code apart from examples. Anyone who can guide me or at least lead me to where i can find proper guidance for writing my own code from scratch. Thanks!

Can you elaborate on what you are after?

The examples and documentation are intended precisely for showing you how you can write your own code using nRF libraries etc. Essentially you should not normally have to write everything yourself, but you can copy in what you need from relevant examples, so that you only have to glue it together with your own code and write application specific functionality that is not part of the SDK.

Thank You so much for your response sir!
I just wanted to learn programming this dk on my own. You see i am a beginner and am not able to completely understand the example codes about how things are happening so i wanted to know if there were any tutorials which would explain each and every function of any example say ble_app_uart so i can get a know how of things because understanding on my own is getting difficult. I can understand what task a specific function is performing but i cant seem to understand HOW the function is performing that task.

Hi,

I see. Then I recommend you to start with the SDK Getting Started guide. After that, you may want to look at some of the tutorials, though unfortunately they are quite outdated. Depending on your scope, you might also want to look at the nRF Getting started guide which gives a quick overview of the whole product development process.

Thank you so much, and yes you are right i looked at the tutorials and they were outdated. I've also already gone through the SDK starting guide and will now study the nRF getting started guide but i dont think they will cover any example code function by function. Anything else you would like to refer where i can understand the SDK v15?

In my experience, the best approach is to start working with an example that is relevant to what you want to achieve. Read it, try to modify it, and understand it. Most of the SDK libraries and drivers have fairly good documentation which you can use to get better understanding of them.
