PlatformIO-Mode¶
An Emacs minor mode has been written to facilitate building and uploading from within Emacs.
It can be installed from the MELPA repository using M-x package-install.
See the MELPA Getting Started page for more information.
Setup instructions and an example config can be found at the Github page.
There are 6 predefined targets for building.
