Hi,

For Segger Embedded Studio we have a tutorial playlist on YouTube: Getting started with SEGGER Embedded Studio and the nRF5 SDK. Apart from that I refer to the sources I linked to previously in this thread.

Thanks again for the answer.

Do you have any start up tutorial for Segger or Keil, to guide my way into it?

Regards.

Hi,

To be honest I do not know what you will be able to do with that IDE, as I have never tried it. We do not have any examples using that IDE, and our SDK is made with support for Segger Embedded Studio, for Keil, for IAR, and for gcc. While in theory you can set up a project in any IDE with gcc support, it is not necessarily easy to do so. In most (if not all) cases it is best to go with one of the officially supported IDEs, so that you can start off with a project that is correctly set up for that IDE and toolchain.

Also, we mostly only know how to use the supported IDEs, so if you choose to use something else you will often be on your own.

Thank you for your answer.

So it is not possible to program my beacon with the IDE form Arduino? That's like the only IDE I know because my school didn't include other IDE's accept for Matlab in the projects and lessons. So any other IDE would take some time to learn

Hi,

I recommend having a quick look at the Getting Started guide, then look into our Tutorials, in particular the Getting Started and Bluetooth low energy sections. After that the rest of the nRF5 SDK documentaiton should be useful. And of course you can search for answers to your questions here on DevZone.

I also recommend that you start using Segger Embedded Studio with our SDK, as that is the main IDE that we support.

Other DevZone users may of course have their own recommendations, hints and tips, and are free to share theirs in this thread.

Terje
