My mistake. I copied files from other version. I noticed, that I have some mess in my nrf connect folders :/

Which nRF Connect SDK version will you be using? Could you please verify that you copied the board files from the same nRF Connect SDK version as you will be building your project for? The board files you attached seem different from the board files for nRF52833 DK found in nRF Connect SDK v2.0.2.

OK. It's visible now. But there are some new issues (Not last, I guess)

Hi again,

I just realized that you have already attached your board files. I had a brief look and did not see something obvious missing.

Anyways, have you verified that VS Code is configured for the same nRF Connect SDK version as you have added the board to? For example, if I add a new board to in the board folder for nRF Connect SDK v1.9.1, it will not be discoverable if VS Code is currently configured for nRF Connect SDK v2.0.2(and vice versa). Here is how to change the nRF Connect SDK version in VS Code:

Go to the startup screen and expand "Quick Setup"
Select the nRF Connect SDK version corresponding to where you added the custom board files.

Hi Piotr,

Section 2.2 in this getting started guide for nRF Connect SDK - Part 3 covers how to create a custom board.

Have you verified that you have updated all instances of the old board name?

When I searched for 'nrf52833dk_nrf52833' in VS Code I find 14 results in 6 files for nRF Connect SDK v1.9.1(it might be a different number for you, depending on which version you are using).

Best regards,
