Using Visual Studio Code for Nordic nRF5 BLE Debugging @NordicTweets @code

Another great post by electronut labs. They write:

We really like Visual Studio Code editor for development. Their UI is very modern and slick, and they provide nice extensions which will make your coding tasks easier. I am going to talk about one useful extension for debugging here – Cortex Debug by marus25 (GitHub) – which adds debugging support for ARM Cortex-M Microcontrollers.

Cortex Debug on Visual Studio Code is very fast and efficient. I will show you how to set it up, and this setup is going to work with any nRF5x development boards. Later, I am going to show you how to debug on our nRF5x breakout board hackaBLE and program it using Bumpy, our SWD programmer.

With the Nordic nRF5 series on fire right now, this comes as good news. Catch the details at electronut labs blog. For VSC, see the Microsoft website.
