We are actually going to publish a “Creating a New Project” wiki page next! That will go over the process for both creating a new project within the DaisyExamples hierarchy, as well as setting up a dedicated repository for a custom project. I expect that we’ll have the first version of this page up sometime in the next week or so.
In the meantime, I can briefly summarize the process.
You can certainly do this manually, but you will have to find the references to your source file (i.e. Blink.cpp) within the JSON files in the .vscode/ folder, as well as the Makefile. (For users on Windows planning to use VisualStudio and the VisualGDB extension, they’d have to do this for the files in the vs/ folder as well.)
That said, DaisyExamples has a helper script written in python that can create new projects, or create copies of a project similar to what you want to create.
To create a new project:
python helper.py create seed/MyNewProject
Or to duplicate an existing one:
python helper.py --source seed/Blink copy seed/MyNewProject
For now the script assumes a folder structure that matches the DaisyExamples hierarchy, and has some issues if you try to use original name in the new name for a copied project (i.e. “Blink” and “NewBlink”).
