WebUSB for Segger devices #248

Open Amerlander opened 10 months ago

Amerlander commented 10 months ago

Calliope mini 2 is based on J-Link by segger instead of CMSIS-DAP.

The current implementation of WebUSB in pxt only supports dapjs and therefore webUSB is not working in MakeCode for the Calliope mini 2.

We tryed to implement J-Link WebUSB, but it seems like the interfaces are hard coded somewhere in pxt and it is not possible to do this only in the pxt-calliope target.

@jwunderl could you help us to figgure out if and how J-Link webUSB could be implemented into pxt and our pxt target, to support the webUSB capabilitys of the Calliope mini 2?
