Other Information
Tests/docs haven't been written. Putting this up as a draft to get initial feedback before putting in more effort. One question how to handle setting
sketchMainFilePath. Should we rename some file in the template directory toMySketch.ino? Or just pick a .ino from the directory (ideally there's only one) and return that from the RPC call?
