You can use QtCreator that way already: https://dorotac.eu/posts/debugging_rust/ You can view the data structures opaquely even though the functions are written not in Rust, but in…

Start in the middle. It's the most interesting part, too. After all, that's the core of your idea. I don't know where I heard this, but the idea is so important to me that I saved …

With my Librem 5 developer hat on, I'm surprised that a SPI chip matters at all. The Librem 5 eMMC contains a hidden "partition", which is preferred by the CPU to boot from over th…
