Phil,

I'm working on building a SAP from scratch. I've got the board soldered up and have the device showing as circuitpy on my computer. I'm a bit lost as to which files I should be moving over to the nrf device. Any direction would be very helpful. I'd also love to help with any documentation I can. Are you needing anything on the build process documented in particular?

The first thing is you need a special version of circuitpython installed - you can get it from https://github.com/furbrain/SAP6_board/releases/download/1.0/sap6_cp_9.0.0.uf2 You will need to create a firmware directory on the nrf device and put all the python files from firmware.zip in there.

You will also need to create and populate the fonts and images directories, and also copy safemode.py boot.py and code.py from firmware/installer into the root directory. The final directory structure should look like:

├── boot.py
├── code.py
├── firmware
│   ├── ***lots of python files***
│   └── versions
│       ├── display128x64.py
│       ├── hardware_v1.py
│       └── __init__.py
├── fonts
│   ├── limited
│   ├── terminus_20_ascii.pcf
│   ├── terminus_22_ascii.pcf
│   ├── terminus_24_ascii.pcf
│   └── terminus_28_ascii.pcf
├── images
│   ├── battery.bmp
│   ├── batt_icon.bmp
│   ├── bt.bmp
│   ├── laser.bmp
│   └── laser.xbm
