Silicon Labs Configurator
(SLC-CLI)
The Simplicity SDK (and Gecko SDK) contains software that follows the SLC specification. Software is grouped into components (defined by .slcc files) that may provide features and/or require features provided by other components. Example projects (.slcp) describe a single software application (usually made up of multiple components plus application code) that can be used to generate an IDE project.
Simplicity Studio includes a pre-integrated version of SLC tooling. Alternatively, the SLC-CLI tool provides a command-line alternative that, among other things, will resolve project and component dependencies and generate a project for a specified embedded target and build system (for example, VS Code, IAR, Embedded Workbench or GNU tools via a Makefile).
