    In this case we will be using a BRD4186C radio board

  4. On the subsequent screen select Bootloader - NCP UART XMODEM

    This will create a Geckpo Bootloader project with upgrade over UART support

    It will bring in the minimum required to get started with a radio board

    If you wish to, you can also set your project to copy all sources from the Gecko SDK locally upon configuration

    This allows for easier versioning but complexifies import/export
