Micro:Bit Boards

[ov10fac]

I have been trying to load the BBC Micro:Bit board into my Arduino Sketch. I have followed all the "how to's" online and can't seem to find the board listed. Does anyone have a link that shows how to program the Micro:Bit with Sketch?
I need to get this running so I can run a high school class instrumenting a Beehive and they want to use the Micro:Bit since the have several already. I want to use sketch since it has libraries and sensors that work with the Micro:Bit.
Thanks.

I know nothing about BBC Micro:Bit but did find this by searching on the name BBC Micro:Bit

Thank you, but that article doesn't work for me. After I install all the libraries and search for the Micro:bit board, it isn't listed. So I don't know if the article is out of date, for a different version of sketch or just wrong since there are no dates or references to the Sketch version cited.

Ok, interesting. I loaded Sketch on my Linux machine and then installed the board as indicated in the web article and the Nordic board is now present. Must be an issue with the Windows version I am using. I'll check further to see what the issue is.
