Creating my first Pebble Watchface
Going to try out creating a pebble watchface as mentioned here.
Installation
Install pebble SDK using Homebrew with:
brew install pebble/pebble-sdk/pebble-sdk
Development
I first started with this sample app of a A Rocky.js implementation of the Concentricity watchface.
Clone the repo and then try to build.
I was running into some nasty issues first due to my node.js version. This is something I have learned to live with using the MUST HAVE nodejs version management tool called n.
I installed the latest version 7.2.1
at the time of this writing using sudo n latest
.
Everything worked perfectly after that!
Enable Developer Connection
I'm using my Android phone because it is more hackable!
Build the app
pebble build
Install the app
pebble install --phone 192.168.2.11
That's it! Works great!
Excited to get this going so fast! Loving it!
