This article will provide a comprehensive guide to building an embedded development environment for Raspberry Pi Pico using CLion and the J-Link debugger tool RTT (Real-Time Transfer) on macOS. I will provide the Ubuntu setup instructions in a separate article. Getting Started with Pico The official documentation by Raspberry Pi Pico provide a general instruction to install Pico SDK and also necessary toolchain. Please read the following chapters in this PDF (https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/pico/getting-started-with-pico.pdf). CLion and J-Link After installing the Pico SDK and toolchain, the next step is to install the CLion and J-Link applications. Please download the latest J-Link application from…

No matter which IDE and debugger you choose, it is essential to have a place to share code and ideas. Therefore, as part of the development environment, we need to learn how to use Git and GitHub to share code. Let’s figure out Git and GitHub…
