any tutorial on latest connect SDK v1.80

[PingISTL]

Dear support

Just started to learning following the tutorial  here - https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/nordic/b/archives/posts/nrf-connect-sdk-tutorial---part-1-ncs-v1-3-0#h769sk6kqovea15p99jn16lstat1dtpuuw

Try to create a solution from scratch by following above tutorial - it is a good tutorial, but it is not up to date with latest SDK version v1.8.0, I am struggling to follow. it doesn't allow me to create a my own project called helloWorld like below in projects. 

I am new to Nordic SES and urgently need to develop something for our new gateway product which uses Fanstel833 chip.

Regards!

Hi, Hung

Thanks for getting back to me, I found the link on Getting started with nRF Connect SDK (nRF52 Series), on Page 15 in Debugging Chapter.. I am overwhelmed with loads of information and don't really know where to start and what tool to use. 

Thanks for pointing me with the new link.

I am trying to learn SES, but if you say VS is better, I will try to use that.

In terms of Zephyr OS, I suppose I have to use that too? 

I am new to embedded OS and Nordic, and we have chosen a Fanstel 833A chip for our product.

Regards!

Hi Ping, 

Yes Zephyr OS is the core of the nRF Connect SDK. When you use any example in the nRF Connect SDK it will use Zephyr OS as it's core RTOS. 
I would agree that the learning curve for getting started with nRF Connect SDK is steep but many of our customers found it's very powerful and convenient for development large project once you get used to it.

Hi, Hung

Thanks for reply, I am following the video tutorials and learning the VS. 

I am new to Zephyr too, could you provide some easy to follow tutorials to get me started on that too please?

Regards!

Hi Ping, 
I'm not aware of a tutorial or guide for Zephyr specifically besides it's documentation. However, the tutorial for NCS would cover most part of how to get started with Zephyr as well.

It should be sufficient to follow that I sent you earlier.

Hello Hung

I have nRF52DK_nrf52832 and intended to use it to develop Fanstel833A evaluation board, which has nRF52811 SoC,  is it the right tool for it?

Just try to create my own board following the video.

Regards!

Hi Ping, 

I assume  you have a nRF52832 Development kit ?  You can use it to get familiar with the toolchain before you develop your firmware for Fanstel module. 
But if you want to test all the feature of the Fanstel (nRF52811) on a DK i would suggest to use nRF52840 DK.  Please have a look here.
The nRF52832 doesn't support Long Range , nor direction finding.
