Speaking of the following guide
-
In Step 1 it mentions that upon building we need additional flag -DOT_BOOTLOADER=USB
IMO it should be moved right below to Step 2.
-
In step 2 we're referring to the other guide. It's bloated and contains too many information, while not mentioning at all specific things to do for building for NRF52 dongle. Command for NCP (a little lower on the same page) contains a brief command. RCP could really use a similar field.
The other problem is that the guide that is made for nrf52840dk is actually made for old revision of nrf52840. There is just no way one purchases old revision of this dev kit, so I suggest remaking the guide for a newer revision (just the images)
-
It's confusing that in NCP design (guide) it says "Follow the instructions below to build the NCP firmware from the ot-nrf528xx repository you cloned in the previous step". What previous step are we referring to here? No link, no logical link at all
-
There is no mention at all of that the source code of the RCP firmware is accessible as a sample for Zephyr and hence it can be built from vanilla Zephyr SDK (will need nrfutil actions to compose the ZIP for the dongle, as mentioned in the guide)
One another useful link that mentions how the hell one flashes a dongle:
