I thought it might be worth pointing out that RadioLib now supports Tock

https://github.com/tock/tock/tree/master/boards/apollo3/lora_things_plus
https://github.com/jgromes/RadioLib/tree/master/examples/NonArduino/Tock

So in future it might be possible to use that for Meshtastic

This one's getting a bit long in the tooth. Want to keep it open?

Since this branch pulls in platform-apollo3blue and the SparkFun Apollo3 Core, I tried adding support for the SparkFun LoRa Thing Plus - expLoRaBLE board.

I used Commit 047b8a5 from September 4, then

1. Copied SparkFun_Thing_Plus_expLoRaBLE.json to the "boards" directory.
2. Created the new directory "variants/LoRa_THING_PLUS_expLoRaBLE".
3. Copied "platformio.ini" and "pins_arduino.h" from "variants/rak11720/" to the new directory.
4. Edited "platformio.ini" for the new board but left "pins_arduino.h" alone.
5. Copied the mbed directory from the core to the new directory.
6. Copied core file pins.cpp to "variant.cpp" in the new directory. A one-line edit is then required.
7. Formed the "variant.h" file in the new directory using content from core files pins.h and variant.h.

Is this a valid approach? The firmware builds successfully, but I haven't tried loading the binary onto a board.

Any insight is appreciated. Thanks.

To follow up on this comment, I did program the SparkFun LoRa Thing Plus - expLoRaBLE board with the firmware.bin file that resulted from the process I described. I was able to connect to the board using the Meshtastic CLI, and it revealed that Bluetooth was not enabled. I then went about enabling Bluetooth in the build, but when I uploaded the new firmware.bin file, the CLI would no longer connect. Reverting back to the original working firmware also results in CLI failure, and nothing I've tried enables the CLI to reconnect. I'm baffled. The board still accepts uploads so I can make LEDs blink, run a "EEPROM" test, etc.
