3.1.2 Setting up Python and Zephyr

Zephyr has quite a few Python dependencies, and it is important to keep these updated consistently. For first time setup, follow these steps:

  1. Install dependencies in Ubuntu with the following command:
  2. Create a new virtual environment in the Home Path. This should be done for every new Zephyr project. “zephyrproject” is what will be used for this example, but this name can be freely changed as long as any future command is updated as well.
  3. Initialize west inside of a zephyrproject and cd into it. Run west update, this may take around 15 minutes, as many packages need to be installed.
  4. Finally, install the Zephyr SDK.
