Hi All;
Just a quick couple of questions and maybe some input from others.
1. Will the leaf native use the Maple IDE / Arduino with extensions for program development?
2. What windows base software/hardware other than the IDE, would I need to put together to develop apps for the native and/or IDE extensions.
3. How much space would I gain by developing apps without the IDE overhead?
thanks

LeafLabsHey Doc,
1) Maple Native and the IDE will play nicely together. It will just be a matter of selecting a different board from the boards menu.
2) None? If you want to hacking low level, and this applies to Maple as well, you can get our Make-based setup via github.com/leaflabs, grab the libmaple repo.
3) Even from the IDE, the "overhead" is just the libmaple library. Which these days is running about 12k FLASH, 3k RAM. If you really wanted to thin things down, the most minimal program I ever got working lives in a crufty folder called bootbox in our old repo code.google.com/p/leaflabs. Of course, with the strip down you loose things like digitalWrite and analogRead...etc. Its pretty much bare programming via direct register access.
In general I would recommend the Make file setup. If youre handy with command line tools (youll likely need cygwin in windows), then you can get the same results as the IDE doing things like "make" and "make program" while using your own editor and workflow.
Does that answer your question?

MemberThanks poslathian!!! just the answer I was hoping for!!! I like the Maple/Arduino style IDE and with extensions for the new boards that's even better since I plan on using the extra connectivity with some future experiments with vision/cameras.
again thanks for the reply, the great support and great products.
