As of today <zephyr/zephyr.h> is 100% equivalent to <zephyr/kernel.h>. This patch proposes to then include <zephyr/kernel.h> instead of <zephyr/zephyr.h> since it is more clear that you are including the Kernel APIs and (probably) nothing else. <zephyr/zephyr.h> sounds like a catch-all header that may be confusing. Most applications need to include a bunch of other things to compile, e.g. driver headers or subsystem headers like BT, logging, etc. The idea of a catch-all header in Zephyr is probably not feasible anyway. Reason is that Zephyr is not a library, like it could be for example `libpython`. Zephyr provides many utilities nowadays: a kernel, drivers, subsystems, etc and things will likely grow. A catch-all header would be massive, difficult to keep up-to-date. It is also likely that an application will only build a small subset. Note that subsystem-level headers may use a catch-all approach to make things easier, though. NOTE: This patch is **NOT** removing the header, just removing its usage in-tree. I'd advocate for its deprecation (add a #warning on it), but I understand many people will have concerns. Signed-off-by: Gerard Marull-Paretas <gerard.marull@nordicsemi.no> |

.. _vl53l0x:
VL53L0X: Time Of Flight sensor
##############################
Overview
********
This sample periodically measures distance between vl53l0x sensor
and target. The result is displayed on the console.
It also shows how we can use the vl53l0x as a proximity sensor.
Requirements
************
This sample uses the VL53L0X sensor controlled using the I2C interface.

Building and Running
********************
This project outputs sensor data to the console. It requires a VL53L0X
sensor, which is present on the disco_l475_iot1 board.
