External Apps

Building

Steps to build:

• Build the main project with idf.py build in the root folder of the project
• Open a terminal at ExternalApps/${AppName}
• The first time, run ./build.sh (during consecutive runs, you can run idf.py build)
• Find the executable build/${AppName}.app.elf and copy it to an SD card.

Developing apps

Currently, only C is supported. The TactilityC project converts Tactility's C++ code into C.

Methods need to be manually exposed to the ELF apps, by editing TactilityC/Source/TactilityC.cpp

You can put apps in Data/config or Data/assets during development, because putting it on an SD card takes more effort.
