From 6b4211e0d6c2e79ec7f1dc3845e2bef171efe043 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: per1234 Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2020 10:15:09 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [skip changelog] Link to Sketch build process docs from Platform specification The "Build process" section of the Arduino platform specification contains a short summary of the Arduino sketch build process. The "Sketch build process" page of the documentation provides much more detailed information, which wouldn't be appropriate in the platform specification, but could well be of interest to a platform developer. Adding a link to the "Sketch build process" documentation from that section of the Platform specification makes all relevant information easily accessible to the reader. --- docs/platform-specification.md | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/platform-specification.md b/docs/platform-specification.md index bfcc5bad728..14ce396e0f6 100644 --- a/docs/platform-specification.md +++ b/docs/platform-specification.md @@ -124,9 +124,9 @@ unused, it is reserved for future use (probably together with the Boards Manager ### Build process -The platform.txt file is used to configure the build process.
