DreamMaker FX + VS Code

These instructions will help you get up and running with style using VS Code for your DMFX development. VS Code is a real IDE and is much easier to use for experienced devlopers than Arduino.

Dependencies

1. Install Arduino IDE
2. Install and Launch VS Code
   1. Open the Extensions manager
   2. Search for the "Arduino for Visual Studio Code" extension (it has >1.5M downloads) and install it
3. Connect the DMFX pedal to your computer.

Open DMFX Hello World Project

1. Open "DMFX Arduino.code-workspace" in VS Code "File > Open Workspace..."
2. Open "settings.json" in the project and configure arduino.path as appropriate for your machine.
3. Open the command palette and choose "Arduino: Select Serial Port" and choose the port that the DMFX is attached to; if you're lucky it will be labeled "Run Jump Labs"

Build it!

1. Click on the DMFX_Hello_World.ino file. Once selected, you should see icons in the top-right corner for "Upload" and "Verify" (compile).
2. Try "Upload" and it should work!
