This is probably a stupid question, but I’m a total newbie at this. When I try to edit my firmware the little build check at the bottom of VS Code goes away, and comes back apparently at will, I know it’s almost certainly my own ignorance kicking me in the ass, but I’m at an impasse. I was able to set up the environment and smart controller enough to get it to turn on and move just fine the first time, but when I went to edit the pins and actually get the stepper drivers correctly VS Code no longer let’s me build.
Another user shared this with me, I don’t know if it will help.
If the check mark is not there for some reason you can also kick off a build from the “Terminal” menu (on Mac, does Windows have menus anymore?) then “Run Build Task…” (alias of command-shift-B on mac, maybe control-shift-B on Win?) Then select the “PlatformIO: Build Marlin” that pops up in the Window.
