Welcome to Arduino for Visual Studio Code! The Arduino extension makes it easy to code, build and deploy your Arduino sketches in Visual Studio Code.
- Verify and upload your Arduino sketches in Visual Studio Code.
- Built-in Arduino board and library manager.
- IntelliSense support and syntax highlighting.
- Built-in serial port monitoring tool.
- Snippets for *.ino files.
- Commond Palette(F1) integration for most common Arduino commands (e.g. Verify, Upload...).
- TBD: Arduino example list.
- TBD: Customizable extension options including command shortcuts and more.
- TBD: F5 integration with debugging support (Arduino Zero).
Currently, the extension relies on the Arduino IDE. You should properly install the Arduino IDE and configurate the installation path.
-
If the arduino command is already available from shell, the extension will try to probe the installation folder.
-
And you can specify the Arduino installation path in the VSCode user setting files:
{ "arduino.path": "D:\\Develop\\arduino", }
This extension provides several commands in the Command Palette (F1) for working with *.ino files:
- Arduino: Add library path: Init the config file, which contains platform related configurations.
- Arduino: Verify: Build (verify) your sketch (*.ino) file.
- Arduino: Upload: Build your sketch file and deploy (upload) to your Arduino board via serial port.
- Arduino: Open Serial Monitoring: Open serial monotoring tool in the intergrated output window.
- Arduino: Send Text to Serial Port: Send a line of text via the specified serial port.
- Arduino: Stop Serial Monitor: Stop serial monitoring tool and release the occupied serial port.
- Arduino: Boards Manager: Manage development platforms for additional boards.
- Arduino: Manage Libraries: Show a list of libraries that are already installed or ready for installation.
- Arduino: Change Baud Rate: Change the band rate of current serial port communication.
- Arduino: Change Board Type: Switch your board type or platform.
