HI Masahiro,

I am afraid that we do not have any other examples that use pc-ble-driver-js and electron.

Best regards

I just tried the release version 2.1.0 and it successfully launched from local. So I think I will go through this. Do you think this is the best example to start or do you know anything a bit simpler? RSSI viewer and boilerplate examples don't use pc-ble-driver-js, which is not ideal for me.

Thank you for the link.

I tried to install nrf Connect by "npm install" but it gave me an error "ERR! Tried to download(404): https://github.com/tessel/node-usb/releases/download/1.3.1/usb_bindings-v1.3.1-electron-v1.8-win32-ia32.tar.gz" and couldn't install it. Then I found just nRF Connect BLE (https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pc-nrfconnect-ble) which seems to be a bit simpler than whole set of nRF Connect. Then installed by "npm install" and launched it from nRFConnect then it pops up error message "Cannot read property 'getDeviceSetup' of undefined" and didn't start.

How can I install nRF Connect BLE? This might be a good starting point because it seems to use pc-ble-driver-js if I am not mistaken. I put "pc-ble-driver-js": "^2.4.1" in dependencies in package.json but it still shows the same error. pc-ble-driver-js doesn't seem to be found. I am quite new to this javascript environment, so I am sure I missed something. Please let me know what I have missed. Thank you.

HI Masahiro.

Is'nt pc-nrf-connect-core what your are looking for?

nRF Connect builds on top of other sub components that live in their own GitHub repositories:
