Platformio NXP evk only possible with Zephyr?

Again maybe similar question as 1), but what’s the link with Arduino? Are you suggesting to use Arduino core to compile something for an NXP chip?

You asked whether Zephyr is the only choice you have with NXP chips and PlatformIO as tool I said no, there’s mbed-os and also Arduino available for some boards, with the Arduino core additionally exposing some NXP SDK that you can work with directly.

If I remove zephyr as framework, I will also remove the entire “NXPs HAL”. So should I get the SDK from Xpresso, and include that as a library?

If you chose to do a baremetal framework, the SDK / HAL files that you want to work with have to be in the project somewhere, in lib/ or src/, preferrable with the same compiler flags as the real SDK would use. How you do this or where the files are sourced from is up to you.
