I have the nrfConnect task that builds my project in vscode.
I need to add a script to execute before the nrfConnect task.
I added a task to my tasks.json but the task that I need to execute before the nrfConnect build, does not execute;;
I even replaced the script with a simple echo command and it still does not execute - I do not see the string "I AM A SUBTASK" in the terminal output
My tasks.json script below
What am I missing?
Thanks
Andy
