Developing on Mac (M3)

[oksalahti]

Hi,

I just bought PineTime and started working on my own watch face.

I managed to compile and run LVGL simulator for Mac with M3 (https://docs.lvgl.io/7.11/get-started/pc-simulator.html)

I tested my watch face with the LVGL simulator and it works as I would like it to work. Next step is to try to get my watch face running on the InfiniSim simulator.

I managed to compile the InfiniSim simulator on Mac but it won't start. These are the error messages I get when trying to run the compiled simulator on mac.

Has anyone managed to run the InfiniSim simulator on mac? Any ideas what's going on? I know I might be able to build InfiniTime project itself and upload my new code on my device but I'd feel much more safe if I can verify that the code runs on the simulator first.

I could not get the simulator to run so I just went and installed on the device directly. It does work but is a bit on the slow side. Looks like drawing 21 arcs and 6 lines and 2 labels just takes a while (~800ms).

Here's the watch face I made. I call it the "Circles of Life". The outer circle indicates progress on the current year, the middle circle progress on the current month, the inner circle progress on the current week and the hour-dots also indicate battery charge level.
