Zephyr and You: A Developer Environment for Newcomers
summary
Shows exact steps to set up a Linux + Visual Studio Code developer environment for Zephyr with the extensions, a script to generate C/C++ IntelliSense, and a recommended west update + module workflow so builds match main. Demonstrates using west debug server and a cordon core dump converted to a gdb session to inspect registers and backtraces. Lists concrete flags (verbose, -p, save temps), build files to inspect (build.ninja, zephyr.map, west.yaml), and hardware debugger workarounds; demo mostly works with a few hiccups.
