[WIndows10] Lib install errors about micro_ros_platformio

Hello @Magnum164, this package targets a Linux development environment. Is possible for you to test it on a Linux machine? If not, I would recommend you using the precompiled libraries provided in the micro-ROS for Arduino package

I have ROS running on a VM. But I don't understand I was literally following the instructions linked to the build on running with vscode. So a little confused if it is not meant for Windows/VScode why is it linking me to install VS code and IDE without redirecting me to the other githubs.

Which I have the other packages as well. Man, I am retired why do I torture myself with this stuff still...

But after I posted this I did use the precompiled in the Arduino IDE2.0 and it seemed to work. Now will try with VScode and see where I can get.

Thanks, sanity checks are helpful.

It is kinda assumed in this repo, but most of the micro-ROS tools are Linux-only due to the build system tooling required for cross-compiling the library. It should be possible to port this to Win, but we as open-source maintainers do not have enought bandwidth.

IMO Arduino is the way to go for micro-ROS when you need to make some quick testing, after having the PoC working, you can move to another package. Nice to hear that it works.
