I'm trying to get any project going in Visual Studio Code, because the Arduino IDE drives me crazy.
Thus, I'm using (trying to use) platformio.
I've previously successfully used platformio for direct AVR chip development (not teensy based.)
I've upgraded to the latest version for platformio core.
I'm running this from the command line, as well as from Visual Studio Code.
I keep getting an error that 'package.json' isn't found in "the package" (it doesn't say which package)
I'm using Windows 10 Pro.
Here's the necessary details:
If I remove the "framework = arduino" config, I don't get that error, but instead none of the necessary headers are found, so that seems like a necessary requirement.
Searching the web, the closest I could get was "you should maybe remove any globally installed library," which I don't quite understand what it means. Global in what sense? I haven't, as far as I know, installed any platformio package globally. How would I check?
Also, running with "-v" doesn't actually print what it's looking for, so, does anyone know how to make it tell me where it's looking?
FWIW, Teensyduino works fine. "fine" -- the IDE is still not good, and the "external editor" integration still isn't particularly useful. But the teensy bits are solid as normal.
Additional info:
