Configurations
==============

Each configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and can be selected as
follow::

  tools/configure.sh thingy53:<subdir>

Where <subdir> is one of the following:

composite_cpuapp
----------------
NuttShell configuration with support for CDC/ACM with RNDIS composite driver.

nsh_cpuapp
----------

Basic NuttShell configuration for the application core (console enabled in UART0,
exposed via J-Link VCOM0, at 115200 bps).

nsh_cpunet
----------

Basic NuttShell configuration for the network core (console enabled in UART0,
exposed via J-Link VCOM1, at 115200 bps).

rpmsghci_nimble_cpuapp
----------------------

This configuration enables RPMSG Bluetooth HCI client on the application core
and uses nimBLE for the host-layer

rpmsghci_sdc_cpunet
-------------------

This configuration enables RPMSG Bluetooth HCI server on the network core which
can be accessed using RPMSG Bluetooth HCI client on the application core.

Flash & Debug
=============

Both flashing and debuing is possible only with an external debug probe.
