Setup Panel

When you first open a workspace in VS Code with IDE for Zephyr installed, you can access the Setup Panel through:

  • The IDE for Zephyr sidebar activity bar icon
  • Command Palette: Zephyr IDE: Workspace Setup
  • The Extension Setup View panel

The Setup Panel provides a card-based interface with three configuration areas:

Overview

  1. Host Tools - Install and verify build tools required for Zephyr development
  2. Zephyr SDK Management - Install and manage Zephyr SDK for different architectures
  3. Workspace - Configure west workspace and Zephyr project dependencies

Click any card to access detailed configuration for that component.
