Hunter's comment

If you had tried Arduino IDE, you will know that Arduino IDE could be one of the worst IDE. There is no code auto complete, all the files written in .ino format instead of .c or .cpp. In addition to that, you can only debug your code once you had compile it, and it only shows in command line, but not on the code editor itself.

PlatformIO could solve this pain! I had done a project with PlatformIO, where my codes are written in C++, and all the codes are seperated into individual files with Object Oriented concept.

About PlatformIO

PlatformIO is an ecosystem for building IOT project with Atom Text Editor. This project is open source and support more than 400 embedded boards including Arduino and Atmel chips.

Key Features

  • Open Source Github
  • Integrated with IDE (Using Atom)
  • Support code syntax highlighting, code autocomplete and compile time check.
  • Error checking and display in the source code editor on which line the error is.
  • Making multiple files for bigger project.
  • Can directly transfer compiled code to the board.

Final thoughts

This is a great open source tools integrated with Atom IDE, I had been successfully build a large scale IoT project with this library!

This is the project I had done with platform IDE, a solar boat with more than 10 sensors, using Arduino Mega.

Pros :

  • It does support multiple architectures and development platforms
  • You can easily debug more than 200 embedded board with no need of configuration
  • It is a cross-platform build system that does not required any dependencies to the operating system
  • Can process multi-projects workflow with multiple panes
  • You can select themes you like from dark ones to lighter ones
  • A more reliable and improved IDE for developers
  • It is currently supported on Mac, Linux and Windows

Cons :

  • I have no cons for this

Pros: The best overall is the Open-Source, and the autocomplete feature.
Cons: Need time for newbie like me to understand hehe.

I love the promise this give, though I'm a beginner, I will give it a try.
