Nice to see that it's not just another VS Code spin off. They seem to be finding a nice middle ground between the very basic Arduino 1 IDE, and an over-complicated all-in IDE.
Plus, debugging, woo!
- perone 5y agoActually it would be much better if they just invested in VSCode for that.
- monocasa 5y agoIt's based off of Theia, so isn't it another VSCode spin off?
- easton 5y agoWhat? That’s exactly what this is. Theia is a fork of VSCode that Eclipse maintains (with a slightly differently structured backend, I think), and they’ve forked that and removed the bits you don’t need for working with Arduino. You can see it in the screenshot, it looks like VSCode with less buttons.
- eggfriedrice 5y agoI stand corrected!
- Bancakes 5y agoVSCode already works better for me. Has all the intellisense and folder management I need. And has my favorite color schemes and git integration. I've ever only needed the clunky Arduino IDE to install libraries and board types.
- ubidefeo 5y agoyou cannot have full intellisense on Arduino project because of how the pre-processing works and generates headers and forward declarations. IDE 2.0 contains a Language Server developed from scratch to handle this, and every platform supported by ClangD works. Even using the Arduino plugin for VS Code won't offer proper completion, hinting and jump-to-definition
- Bancakes 5y agoThe only bug I've had was I need to flash my arduino with a project to "warm the compiler up" w.r.t. libraries and hardware capabilities.
