Off hand, most of the boards supported are microcontrollers compatible with the Arduino build environment and API -- only about 8 boards are running an actual OS... And of those the R-Pi "Linux ARM" is using the WiringPi [Arduino look-alike API] framework for building while the Samsung are using the ARTIK SDK. The biggest killer is likely from the documentation itself... """ How does it work? Without going too deep into PlatformIO implementation details, work cycle of the project developed using PlatformIO is as follows: Users choose board(s) interested in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File) Based on this list of boards, PlatformIO downloads required toolchains and installs them automatically. Users develop code and PlatformIO makes sure that it is compiled, prepared and uploaded to all the boards of interest. """ Note the sentence starting "Based on..." So for BBB, one is looking for some downloadable cross-development toolchain for Linux ARM -- considering the hassle to set up a cross compiler in Debian x86 for Debian ARM (per the Molloy book) I wouldn't even want to consider this under Windows. Maybe the R-Pi toolchain would be compatible though I suspect some of the libraries aren't... (toolchain-gccarmlinuxgnueabi) but you need some API for the GPIO (and other devices). FYI: the author of WiringPi is throwing in the towel http://wiringpi.com/wiringpi-deprecated/ """ I will make a final release of wiringPi available soon – with the sources, but that’s that. No more public releases. I’ll still be maintaining it for my own uses and clients, but for everyone else, please look at for alternative GPIO library for on-going projects. -Gordon, August, 2019.
