Description

Hi Pio!

We're looking into switching to vscode from emstudio for the nrf chips as our experience has been... less than optimal
Everything looked fine whilst I tested the NRF52840 DK but when I tried creating one for the NRF9160 DK I noticed pio doesn't support it!

I'd love to see this added

Regards,
Nos
