In fact I use Atom for everything from writing a script for a YouTube Video over to NodeJS Apps and of course all my microcontroller stuff. I spend a lot of time programming all sorts of languages. You can find all sorts of different Packages ranging from automatic documentation generation plugins over to FTP clients that for example automatically upload a modified file to your raspberry pi.Ītom also lets you choose your favourite color scheme, font and many other design settings. In fact the PlatformIO stuff is actually "just" a Package for Atom! How these sketches are deployed is a bit different than usual. However, none of this has anything to do with how anything gets written to the board. Your projects, or 'sketches', incorporate the mentioned Arduino libraries and is compiled with avr-gcc.

Next Atom has a complete plugin system including search, automatic installation and update notifications. Yes, the Arduino IDE basically wraps avr-gcc - the AVR C compiler. Here you can group them into folders and keep your project nice and clean. This gets more and more important as your project grows, because it's a great practise to organise classes and other stuff into separate files. If you, for example want to read something from the EEPROM storage but cannot remember the exact function name simply start typing, hit control-space and look through the suggestions.Īnother great feature is that you now have a full file explorer. This helps you write code by suggesting class and function names while you are typing. It has modular hardware, a complete microcontroller programming course, a book, lots. I made a little installation and setup guide on YouTube.įirst it has code completion. Our latest Kanda MICR0-X it is the best Arduino alternative on the market. This combination provides a ton of great stuff which makes writing code - great again. PlatformIO is actually a Plugin for a code editor called Atom.
And that's why I'd like to show you my favourite alternative which is called PlatformIO. The standard Arduino editor has a couple of things I don't really like.
