4.3.2 Setting up Visual Studio Code (VSCode) Environment

Visual Studio Code is a common way to debug embedded projects, with the right extensions.

The extension Cortex-Debug allows visual debugging within Visual Studio Code. After installing the extension via the “extensions menu” within VSCode, the launch.json file must be configured to support MSPM0 Zephyr Projects. After this, the environment is ready to build, flash, and debug a Zephyr project.
