[sdiy] OT: uC Development Environments

[J. Fellinger]

I personally have been doing stuff with atmel/microchip atsamd/atsamc series lately. You can generate setup code with Atmel Start (online) for whatever IDE you're using. Atmel has its own Visual Studio IDE, but they only support debuggers that I dont have/dont want to afford (and I dont think there is a way to add your own), so I switched to Visual Studio Code (not to be mistaken for Visual Studio) and installed an ARM debugger plugin that connects to a GDB Server running on a Black Magic Probe (an open source arm debugger). All in all works pretty good for me.
