Is there a way to start up my own project using SES from scratch or do I have just to depend on SDK? I find the project in the SDK very fiddly as it is hard to tell where some of the functions are defined. If I can just find a way to start my own please.

Of course there is - see the SES User Guide for details!

Have you tried using the 'Go To Definition' & 'Go To Declaration' features of SES ?

Sure, they can be a bit flaky:

but that's inherent to SES - creating your own Project won't help that.

I tried but failed to create a working project with SES. I have then thought it would be simple to start a project by simply just renaming the Template found in Example/peripheral/templete project. 

Unfortunately, this could not compile either because of and error:

"cannot find ../../../../../../external/micro-ecc/nrf52hf_armgcc/armgcc/micro_ecc_lib_nrf52.a: No such file or directory"

I have checked for this to see if there file is there but there is none and is required in the project, if one open the ses Project file in notepad++.

Please Help!!!
