Alexa Gadget Toolkit implementation on NRF52840?

[mdot]

Hello, 

I have couple of NRF52840 devices that i purchased from Adafruit. I wanted to use them with Alexa Gadgets Toolkit via BLE, however with no previous experience with BLE i have been struggling a bit. Wanted to see if anyone has already been able to achieve this and could provide some guidance?

Hi,

We don't have any examples using Alexa Gadgets yet, but we will try to look into it.

Best regards,

Hi,

I am sorry, but for more detailed roadmap question and dates you will need to contact your regional sales manager. Have a nice day.

Hello Marjeris Romero! I dont think you understand my question correctly. This is a purely technical question and has nothing to do with the sales team. Would you be able to direct me to someone from the technical team?

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. Perhaps there was a misunderstanding in my previous answers. We didn't have any example available using Alexa Gadgets for nRF52840 at that moment, but there was some work in progress. In general, if customers want more information about future example releases we usually ask them to contact their sales representative.

Good news is that there is now a PR request with an Alexa Gadgets service sample which you can take a look at if you are using NCS for nRF52840 devices. This sample is still not merged in NCS so there still may be some modifications before merging.
