This is copied from jabss at https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=282876#p282876 and is aimed at the Digispark.

First, I cloned your git repository.

mkdir digispark
cd digispark/
git clone https://github.com/nopdotcom/i2c_tiny_usb-on-Little-Wire
cd i2c_tiny_usb-on-Little-Wire/

(I also uncommented the USB ID as per your help) (see https://github.com/nopdotcom/i2c_tiny_usb-on-Little-Wire/blob/master/firmware/usbconfig.h#L157)

Then, installed "gcc-avr" and "avr-libc":

sudo apt-get install gcc-avr avr-libc

Then, compiled. It worked at first time!

user@server$ make hex
avr-objcopy -j .text -j .data -O ihex main.elf main.hex
avr-size -C --mcu=attiny85 main.elf
AVR Memory Usage
----------------
Device: attiny85

Program:    3126 bytes (38.2% Full)
(.text + .data + .bootloader)

Data:         66 bytes (12.9% Full)
(.data + .bss + .noinit)

The result is the "main.hex" file.

Then, I followed this digispark tutorial that teaches how to add digispark support t Arduino IDE. https://digistump.com/wiki/digispark/tutorials/connecting This installs micronucleus in so it can be used to upload to Digispark. I had to search for it, in my case it was in /home/user/.arduino15/packages/digistump/tools/micronucleus/2.0a4.

After finding it, it was just a matter of copping all the files to the same directory and run:

sudo ./micronucleus --run --dump-progress --type intel-hex main.hex
