Text and Font needs to go back to dock on right.

Click in the area of Text and Font window UNDER the Text and Font window display where it says T Text and font (Shift+Ctrl+T).

That will allow you to drag that window back into the dock.

Create docker container in Code

remote-containers extension allows you to build and run a docker image of your source.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFyRLxiRKAc&t=309s

In the devcontainer.json file, add the following 2 lines:
  "forwardPorts": [3000],
  "postCreateCommand": "npm install",

  "containerEnv": {
    "CHOKIDAR_USEPOLLING":"true"
  }
Build Container
F1
remote-containers rebuild and Reopen in containers
go to terminal and npm run start.  This will open the node app on port 3000 in a browser. 

This is definitely a work in progress. watch the video.

Arduino-cli Documentation

Now working with arduino nano at the command line. The ide is ok but I like cli.

Link to arduino-cli documentation

https://arduino.github.io/arduino-cli/0.19/getting-started/

New sketch:

arduino-cli sketch new <<SketchName>>

A new sketch is generated in its own directory.

Board List:

arduino-cli board list
arduino-cli board listall

command to list all the boards currently found

Core:

arduino-cli core install arduino:mbed_nano

core, to me, is a library for the particular arduino I am currently working with. The above command installs the core for the arduino card currently being worked with, in my case, mbed_nano

arduino-cli core list:

arduino-cli core list

lists the cores currently available for use.
