How to enable Bluefruit in Makecode maker

Hi.

I have an Adafruit ItsyBitsy nRF52840 Express (long name), and want to use its Bluetooth capability.

I can find a ton of examples how to make the board do many things WHEN connected, but so far not a single page on HOW to activate the BLE on the board to facilitate the connection to my phones Adafruit Connect app.

How do I get the bluetooth blocks into my editor? I can actually find them for my Micro:Bit version, but has Adafruit ignored this possiblility when they are making so many products that has BLE onboard?

I am only using the MakeCode Maker (block edition) for editing, so please - No arduino nor javascript !

So many months and just about ZERO help from Adafruit as well as Microsoft MakeCode regarding creating MakeCode extensions for Adafruit units, and not just Bluefruit or Trellis items.

It seems that Microsoft MakeCode and Adafruit and their communities is exclusive to MicroPython and Arduino programmers, but NOT for those of us who uses MakeCode. MakeCode users can just throw all our electronics into the bin.

I want to thank Adafruit and Microsoft Makecode for ignoring all of us, all though accepting our purchases wasn’t ignored.
