Hi Joseph,

The nRF5 SDK is different from the nRF Connect SDK and VS Code supports the nRF Connect SDK. As mentioned in the Tutorial,

Is the partition layout in flash done in a completely different way with Zephyr and Visual Studio ?

I found this file that seems like it might be defining the flash layout

fstab-stock.dts

&flash0 {
    partitions {
        compatible = "fixed-partitions";
        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <1>;

        /* MCUboot placed after Nordic MBR.
         * The size of this partition ensures that MCUBoot
         * can be built with CDC ACM support and w/o optimizations.
         */
        boot_partition: partition@1000 {
            label = "mcuboot";
            reg = <0x00001000 0x000f000>;
        };

        slot0_partition: partition@10000 {
            label = "image-0";
            reg = <0x00010000 0x00005e000>;

        storage_partition: partition@cc000 {

Hi,

Could you tell me what VS Code version you are using?
