Programming Arduino on Visual Studio Code Editor with Platform.io or Arduino extension


https://www.electronics-lab.com/project/programming-arduino-platform-io-arduino-extension-visual-studio-code-editor/

The Arduino IDE is a great programming tool, it is simple to use and it contains probably all resources one will need to build a project, but evaluating it as a code editor, it is a not the perfect tool. It lacks programming aiding features like IntelliSense, code suggestions, auto-complete, auto-correct, and debug tools, which […]
