    There's also apparently a way to use the other core of a Pico as a debug programmer: https://github.com/majbthrd/pico-debug/ but that's pretty advanced.

    This blog pot continues the Pico setup series and will detail how to setup a fully working debugger in VS Studio Code. Keep in mind that ultimately the steps are based on explanations from pico-debug project, and wizio-pico, but the setup is complex so I wrote a summarizing blog article. Follow along and you will be debugging your Pico C programs with the press of a simple launch button.
