Programming and Debugging
*************************
Applications for the ``adafruit_feather_nrf52840`` board configuration
can be built and flashed in the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application`
and :ref:`application_run` for more details).
Flashing
========
Flashing Zephyr onto the ``adafruit_feather_nrf52480`` board requires
an external programmer. The programmer is attached to the SWD header.
Build the Zephyr kernel and the :ref:`blinky-sample` sample application.
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/blinky
:board: adafruit_feather_nrf52840
:goals: build
:compact:
Flash the image.
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/blinky
:board: adafruit_feather_nrf52840
:goals: flash
:compact:
You should see the the red LED blink.
