No GD32E23x MCUs in Arduino about arduinocore-gd32 HOT 5 CLOSED

Dear Mr. Erhard, many thanks for your effort; my GD32E230 really works fine in the Sloeber. I am so happy now!
I do not use Platformio as the VSC seems to use the display area real estate somewhat wasteful in my opinion. Maybe it is because I do not know how to customise the UI properly, but I simply like the Eclipse's thinner borders and smaller fonts more.
Best regards and thank you once more!

We have not yet created an automation for creating the Arduino core's boards.txt, which this Sloeber plugin probably builds on for detecting the boards. It will still take us some time to do so.

However, please just use PlatformIO to export an Eclipse project if you want to use that IDE. This is documented and works perfectly fine -- there's no need to wait on anything from us.

^-- created by pio init -b genericGD32E230K8 -O "framework = arduino" --ide=eclipse on the commandline and File -> Import -> Existing Projects into Workspace in Eclipse.

FYI, the recent commits (48f9436, 4f31b65 etc.) add the auto generated boards to the board list, so all E23x boards too. In the Arduino IDE, you would need to uninstall and reinstall the GD32 core in the board manager to get the update.

However, I would still recommend PlatformIO as the underlying build system, and not usage of the Arduino IDE or Sloeber. PlatformIO is better tested right now.
