   > What is the correct way to create a bsp for my own board? I think I should copy an example bsp and change the values to fit my board (add pwm, set io's ...), correct?
   
   You might find this helpful: http://mynewt.apache.org/latest/os/core_os/porting/port_bsp.html.  Copying an existing BSP is also a reasonable way to go about doing this.
   
   > How to maintain my project? newt downloads the a specific version to my repo, should I apply changes to this repo? I normally fork projects form Github, crate my own branch and apply changes to it in order to update to latest master when required. But I do not really understand how to correctly develop code for newt/nimble.
   
   Creating a fork+branch is a good way to do it.  Then modify your project.yml file so that it specifies your fork+branch.  For example:
   
   ```
   repository.apache-mynewt-nimble:
       type: git
       vers: '<branch-name>-commit'
       url: "git@github.com:NilsMinor/mynewt-nimble.git"
   ```
   
   When you run `newt upgrade`, newt will checkout the specified branch from your nimble fork.
