Salut,

I have created and tested a documentation on how to use an Arduino Starterkit with a chipKit board. I show in 9 examples how to use the starterkit with an Arduino and with my HelvePic32 board. My intend is to show that there is a high similarity between the two platforms and that the code is mostly reusable. If you are interested, have a look at the site: http://www.helvepic32.org/starter-kit/

I will continue documenting use cases such as the ringcoder (http://www.helvepic32.org/using-gpio/) from Sparkfun. If you like my drawings and would like to have them on your products/projects, let me know. I love to create drawings as a hobby so my "payment" is usually mentioning my name on the documentation or in some cases the device itself so I can test it.

Ciao, Mathias

That's brilliant! Err... You wouldn't consider doing that, or something like it, on the chipKIT wiki would you? We're always looking for good content like that. http://chipkit.net/wiki

Salut,

yes, I would be interested in contributing to the wiki. It looks completely empty at the moment and creating an account returns: Account creation error *** Forbidden. Please enable JavaScript. *** I disables noscript without success.

Ciao, Mathias

That's CleanTalk being over-zealous. You could be on a dynamic IP that has been reported for spam in the past (not your fault, someone else). I have requested whitelisting of you, so it should work in about 5 minutes.
