BLE Development with VS code

[Sreejith Sundh]

Hallo,

I am looking for some tutorial for developing BLE centre and peripheral device using nRF5340 DK. I am not familiar with SEGGER and device studios so I am working with VS code. is there any tutorial for beginner in service and advertisement (along with base and offset UUIDs) especially in the VS code platform?

Thanks for your help..

Hello Sreejith!

In order to get familiar with using NCS on Visual Studio code I would recommend taking a look at this webinar with Ali Aljaani, as well as this tutorial series on youtube.

Best regards,

Hi Elfving,

Thanks for your response. I went through the code and succefully played my first app in VS code. But I am looking for the bluetooth tutorials for the VS code. I saw one webinar in Youtube by nordic team for the ble remote service but when I tried this I could not connect my board with NRF Terminal (do you have any idea how to establish connection via NRF Termina in VS code).

Thanks for your suggestions!

with Regards,

Sreejith

Hello Sreejith, I see.

We do not have many tutorials for developing in VS Code yet, but keep in mind that VSC is just an IDE; you can also use whichever tutorial and implement in VSC if you want to. However, the webinar for remote service is definitely one you should look at. Good thing that you found it.

Do you simply not see the terminal on VSC or does it for instance not show any info? And what does it say on the bottom left about connected devices?

Best regards,

but your have plan for adding?

[Elfving]

Yes. Though I can't give much information about our roadmap as that is continuously changing. Have you taken a look at this tutorial btw? I dont think I have mentioned it earlier in this thread.

Yes. i see this video too. this format is very convenient, but there is one difficulty: I tried to create a project for NRF5340 according to this guide and got confused. there is not enough simple step that will push in the right direction. there should be a simple demo that will take you by the hand from the moment you connect the board to a PC and create an application that uses both cores. This will be a really huge benefit for a quick start.

Is there (at least discussed) a tutorial in your roadmap for using the BLE stack (network core) with a simple application for 5340?
