Hi,
Can anyone help me with how to program Arduino Nano 33 BLE from Visual Studio Code (and PlatformIO)?
I am able to build the project, but don't know how to flush it using either a bootloader or J-Link
Any links, hints?
Thanks

Hello,
it is up to you if you use Segger J-Link or download codes as known from Arduino IDE by simply usig USB Port.

After you have build, simply press -> Button, should download then automatically if not provide error messages.

With JLINK:
You have to silder wire pads , and you need and Segger Jlink , do you have that.
I recomend this for debuging not needed for normal downloads

Hello janeksz,

I use Visual Studio to program my Nano 33's with Platform IO over USB. It is pretty straight forward, all you need to do is set up a new project and select right board, find the libraries you need in the Platform IO manager and put your code in main.cpp. It should compile and upload.

There are plenty of guides online, I think I watched a youtube video or something.

Hope that helps,
Matt

Did you try an option UPLOAD ?
I use platformio on ATOM IDE but it should be the same.
Check if winddows see the Serial port - if not - install arduino driver. It is good to have original Arduino platform installed for quick testes.
Also you may try to put the board in bootloader mode (double click on the button on it).
