Setting Up (Platform IO)

I recently switched to using platformIO for coding the astropixels. It gives a lot more flexibility and ease of use compared to Arduino IDE. Here's how you can set it up:

1. Install VSCode (or vscodium)

2. Add the PlatformIO extension

3. Clone the astropixels repo

4. Open workspace from file, selecting the astropixels.code-workspace file from the repo.

It should be detected as a platformio project. The platformio.ini handles what libraries are needed and such like.

Environments

I have it set up into multiple environments so that I can keep multiple firmwares ready to deploy. The astropixels ship with the standard environment installed.
