Hello! Creating your own C++ libraries for the pico-sdk is an accessible process but requires some prior knowledge. To begin, it is essential to study the datasheet of the microcontroller you are using, especially the section that explains how the GPIO registers work and how they control the physical pins of the hardware. It is also crucial to consult the official pico-sdk documentation, which describes the internal structure of the libraries, the available peripherals, and how to interact with the hardware efficiently. Additionally, the official examples repository on GitHub is an excellent resource, offering practical code examples for GPIO, PWM, SPI, I2C, and other fundamental functionalities. Finally, it is essential to properly configure your development environment on your computer, with the pico-sdk installed, along with CMake, the GCC compiler for ARM, and a code editor such as VS Code, CLion, or any other of your choice. I also recommend reviewing the basic concepts of creating libraries in C++, as this knowledge will enable you to develop libraries for any type of device you need to use with the pico-sdk.
