A brief explainer I should really have submitted with the link: - PlatformIO already has "official" support for the RasPi Pico board, with Arduino - However almost everyone prefers and uses the "unofficial" earlephilhower/arduino-pico integration which adds a ton of features and is well documented - A PR to add this integration to the PIO registry has been outstanding for over two years now - In the last week or so the PlatformIO CEO has posted that they will not be merging the PR - My understanding of their reasoning is that RasPi needs to pay PIO to support the branch going forward? The language is rather vague with a lot of talk about "communities" and "values" so I could be wrong about this, please don't sue me - RasPi's response is basically "LOL no" since they are all-in on their horrible CMake toolchain and don't care about PIO |
