probe-run VS awesome-embedded-rust

Install probe-run (this is optional, but makes flashing easier)

This made me want to try getting some of these tools running. Probe run looked so handy, but it just doesn't work for me.

For flashing, Check out Kurling's Probe-run, and related tools like defmt, as well as their app template.

You don't need a USB file system for a convenient dev experience. In fact you can achieve an even more integrated experience with Rust today, on essentially any Cortex-M microcontroller if you set up probe-run. It makes cargo run flash and run the code on your microcontroller and can even be invoked with rust-analyzer's run button or an IDE command.

I've been looking for a way to debug my application like I would from GDB (ie: set breakpoints, inspect registers, step, etc.) but I haven't found any documentation on how to accomplish this with probe-run.

Are you saying that this book is a hallucination? And this? And all of this?

Feel free to PR them to the awesome embedded rust list, and the matrix rooms for embedded rust and esp32 (linked on that page) are super active, so feel free to plug this there too :)

If you haven't already, feel free to PR it to the awesome embedded rust list!

list of curated rust microcontroller resources

embedded-hal trait-based HALs: There could be a better description than this. However, this category has the widest base of implementations with more options than can be mentioned here. A more comprehensive list can be found on the awesome embedded Rust repository.

For what it's worth, the ecosystem is definitely growing. See here: https://github.com/rust-embedded/awesome-embedded-rust, there are quite a few drivers for a pretty wide variety of sensors/periphs, and almost every large SoC line is supported.
