Cannot find Arduino IDE VS Code

Question

I am using windows and I installed the Arduino IDE from Microsoft store, but I wanted to code everything in VS Code. When I want to run the program or select the board it just says this:

Cannot find Arduino IDE. Please specify the "arduino.path" in the user settings. Requires a restart after change.

How can I fix this, where can I find the arduino.path?

Answer 1

Install PlatformIO extension for VS Code. It has Arduino framework and it works with all possible boards, and then some.
