Clone the nRF Connect SDK

[Sim1]

Hi, I'm struggeling with this stage on the "getting started assistant"

"Clone the nRF Connect SDK"

Is there any step by step video to help me do this, I have probably not saved files in the correct places.
Can anyone push me in the right direction?

Wrong PATH? git is installed.

Thank you.

Hello, 

I'll be taking over you support case as Einar is on vacation.

My initial question is; how familiar are you with the embedded environment? Are you familiar with the Windows Command Line? I recommend that you start by getting an understanding of basic Windows functionality. Have a look at this tutorial. 

Keep in mind that nRF9160 is an advanced product. I recommend reading thoroughly through the following tutorials: Getting Started with the nRF9160 DK and nRF Connect SDK tutorial. What usage are you planning with nRF9160?

---

When you start the Windows Command Line, depending on your setup, it will default to:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>

You should not do anything in this folder and must move to C:\ before starting with anything in the Getting Started Assistant. This is done using the following command:

cd C:\

Standing in C:\ you can add the folder NCS and start with the Getting Started Assistant.

mkdir NCS
cd NCS

---

What steps have you done so far in the Getting Started Assistant? I recommend reading about the toolchain that you are installing, so you know what you are working with. There are plenty of holes to fall into if you do not know what you are doing. 

Let me know what you have done so far, and what you plan to do, and we'll take it from there.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Hello,

I am stuck on the "Getting Started Assistant" at "pip3 install west"




"west" installed correctly but will not verify. Also, the document never says to cd c:\. 

11:25:06.011

'west' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

11:25:06.025

nrf_connect_sdk-0.1.4-0 verification failed

Thanks,

Matt
