Quick Start
===========
In order to build one of the sample apps, you need to set a few environment
variables:
`` `
export BL60X_SDK_PATH=/path/to/this/repo
export CONFIG_CHIP_NAME=bl602
`` `
Then go to the sample directory of interest and call `make`
`` `
cd customer_app/bl602_boot2
make
`` `

Call
`` `
make CONFIG_TOOLPREFIX=riscv64-linux-gnu-
`` `
for bypassing the bundled crosscompiler and using your distribution's own crosscompiler.

There is a linker script (written in python) at `image_conf/flash_build.py`
To run this, you need to specify the application and the target, for example:
`` `
python3 flash_build.py bl602_boot2 bl602
`` `

BL602 is a 32-bit RISC-V based combo chipset supporting Wi-Fi and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). The chip is made by `Nanjing-based Bouffalo Lab <https://www.bouffalolab.com/bl602> `_ for ultra-low-power applications.
In terms of price range and feature set, the chip is competing against `Espressif ESP8266 <https://www.espressif.com/en/products/socs/esp8266> `_
