Beginners • Re: Converting from Arduino to Raspberry Pi headless

Long version: I've done a few arduino projects here and there but I'm most definitely a rank amateur with this sort of thing. With the Arduino, I found a lot of success using VScode and platformio and was able to get some good stuff happening. However I am slamming up against a difficulty cliff with the pi.
Only having a passing exposure to Ardunio, I would suspect that Raspberry PICO is a closer match than a ZERO. RPI ZERO runs a full operating system as opposed to PICO and (I assume) Arduino which are microcontrollers. A PICO could eliminate the need for learning Linux.

Also your choice of using platformio whose web banner states "Your Gateway to Embedded Software Development Excellence" supports PICO over ZERO.

Errors/challenges with platformio and/or VScode are best addressed in their forums.

For PICO, there is a C/C++ SDK to get started. See https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... c_sdk.html

I personally see more Python programming than C/C++ on RPI with OS's. Here is an article on running C/C++ on those https://raspberrytips.com/use-c-on-raspberry-pi/
I'm using a lot of CoPilot here and I'm unfortunately not understanding its solutions, even though it usually works - I don't like black boxes but the .json files have definitely become one
Nothin beats you learning yourself. If you are having problems with CoPilot code I'd recommend asking CoPilot for help.
