(install igniter: mix archive.install hex igniter_new) you can try mix igniter.new my_project --install exatomvm@github:petermm/exatomvm && cd my_project adds dependency and atomvm project config and the start function. early days in igniter world, but should be good to go.

I gave this a test for stm32, and it is a bit confusing because when I selected stm32 I was asked about the port… which is currently not used by the stm32 flash task. At the moment we only support using one stlink device at a time. |
absolutely, that one is a compromise, it does say it's configuring project for all/any devices - imho the port should default "auto" for esp32, and that is the underlying issue.. but hope it worked nicely otherwise! |

It is interesting for sure, and I could see this being a big improvement for complex applications. For a lot of situations it seems a bit heavy, and I would rather have a simple template project with a default configuration... like what we get with the atomvm_rebar3_plugin atomvm_app template. There are a lot of dependencies to get and compile, and then configure to get to blinky. That might be something we could do separately, I just don't understand the inner workings of mix well enough yet to figure out how to add a template project. I think this is absolutely worth supporting, even though it's early days for igniter it already seems to be getting quite popular. It might be less confusing to leave out the device menu, since in the end it does the configuration for |
Igniter is gaining traction due to the DX, and maintainability benefits..
(install igniter:

mix igniter.new my_project --install exatomvm@github:petermm/exatomvm && cd my_projectwhen exatomvm is released to hex it will be

So future DX is:
mix igniter.new my_project --install exatomvm && cd my_projectmix atomvm.esp32.flashno command line flashing of images, or figuring out what usb ports are called on what side of your computer, adding boilerplate etc.
