Coding for MCUs gets more and more surreal every day.. On one hand we're cooding oldschool heavy metal C or C++, but on the other hand they tell you to use PuTTY to check if there is a working serial connection - what the fuck?

Also the IDEs they suggest you. VSCode or Eclipse. Both are so unbelievable unusable for this, even with plugins, I would compile this shit via CLI myself before using them.

It just feels so contrary - they act like professionals and just spit out 200 uncommented lines of C to start WiFi on the ESP32 - not explaining a single fucking thing, but on the other hand, they checked the connection via PuTTY after writing some uwu kawaii shit into Eclipse.

Not to mention Arduino with their FUCKING SKETCHES.

    Arduino programming is one hell of a joke. One misstep and it's all gone: go find EEPROM to burn from or better buy new (or is it really?).

    @Demolishun nothing, but after installing a good 50 packages of build chain for the esp32 stuff it triggered me, how we now also need a gui tool for a bit of `screen /dev/ttyUSB0`.

    Especially because they explain the actual coding and mechanics not that child friendly, and it annoys me.
