Support for Clearcore - files provided

[PromachNZ]

i really want to get my clearcore running with GRBLHAL but i havent managed it yet. is it possible for it to work and would these files help?
https://github.com/Teknic-Inc/ClearCore-library.git
also would be great if someone smarter then me could do it :-)

Perhaps pose this question to Teknic and see if they can get one of their engineers on it?

Does this imply that you have tried and failed? If so, how far did you get?

is it possible for it to work and would these files help?

Yes and yes. A new driver is required, possibly based on a copy of the SAM3X8E driver. My strategy when writing a new driver is to get serial comms working first and then add the other bits one step at a time.

It would be great if they (or someone else) add a driver as I am not to keen to do it myself - yet another board to buy for development and a driver to maintain...

I'm going to try my best but I'm pretty new to this, I paid a guy and sent him a board but so far all I have got is a bit of code which i had to fix anyway.

i have had a chat with a guy that's going to give it a go, fingers crossed he can get it done by the end of this week

Great, if he needs support he should get in contact with me. Yesterday I finished my garden projects so will have time for this project again...

What is the status of this port?

Interested in this as well. Looks like support was just added in platform IO. https://github.com/platformio/platform-atmelsam/issues/175 I have a ClearCore and can devote some testing time to this project.
