`sdkconfig.h: No such file or directory` on a fresh install for Arduino Nano

Hi there, I'm getting the error:

Error compiling for board Arduino Nano 33 BLE.

I'm hoping to get this working for the Arduino Nano 33 BLE. Is this possible?

Hello @beyarkay

This library is written for the ESP32 chipset and cannot be used with the Arduino Nano (ATmega328).

Thanks for the fast reply!

Is there no way I can modify it to work with the Nano? I'm happy to put in the work and contribute but my use case requires out be compatible with the Nano

No, this is not possible, because this library depends on the functions of the ESP32 chip. You either need a library for the Arduino Nano BLE like mbed-ble-hid or you could alternatively use an ESP32 devkit or similar.
