Overcoming C++ Embedded Development Tooling Challenges
summary
Claims concrete fixes: use VC package artifacts to declare and activate compilers, use cmake presets and toolchain files to find compilers on PATH, and run builds in multi‑stage Docker images inside CI. Examples include automatic activation in Visual Studio/VS Code, jlink flashing plus a serial monitor showing runtime messages, and an ST importer that achieves a 94% build pass rate on ~3000 SDK projects. Also demonstrates firmware validation in renode.
