Teensy 4.1 Upload Successful but Board Does Not Run Code

1

I am new to PlatformIO having moved over from the Teensyduino IDE. I have a Teensy 4.1 and code that works correctly when uploaded through Teensyduinio. When I try to upload this code using PlatformIO, I get the following message.

But the Teensy does nothing from this point. I am running MacOS on an M1 chip and connect to the Teensy using USB. My configuration is as follows:

[env:teensy41]
platform = teensy
board = teensy41
framework = arduino
upload_protocol = teensy-cli
build_flags = -D USB_SERIAL

In which way is the sketch not working exactly? Can you use blinky as a reference code, does it also fail?

What is the upload log in the Arduino IDE? (If needed, File → Preferences → Verbose Upload)?

Looking at the example made me realise what I was doing wrong. I assumed the upload button in the PlatformIO extension for VSCode ran the currently opened .cpp file, not the one located in src. This was the default boilerplate code which explains why the upload left the Teensy doing nothing. Moving my code to this folder resolved the issue.

Thanks for pointing me in that direction.
