    Thank you!

    OK. I was thinking to assemble a "Press F5 to debug" solution to speed up my learning process. I'm used to command line tools and hacking stuff together too, so I should be fine if that is the state of the art for debugging (but it would be difficult to convince my coworkers in the future). I wonder if a combination of Eclipse for Rust and OpenOCD plugin is doable. Or perhaps cortex-debug[1] for VS:Code. I have some research to do, to explore the different solutions.

    And I'm stuck on Windows too, since many of the tools I use require Windows.

    Thanks again.
