Re: Documentation confusion

All very confusing. Could some kind soul please explain ! You're not alone finding this confusing. Learning where to find documentation and how to use it/where to find help was one of the steepest learning curves I had when starting to work with OSS. It's just something that takes time and (lots of...

Re: Documentation confusion

I'll let Damien know what I did to build the PDF and see if we can fix it in the build pipeline. Since working with this kind of generated documentation seems to be something new to the topic starter, I'd think that working with a docker container to generate the pdf would be a bridge too far.

Re: Where to get crash information/Serial REPL?

I realize I can get a serial port over USB, but that doesn't really give me any output in case of a crash, does it? I can get a REPL on it by pressing CTRL + C (I think, not sure of the exact combination atm), but then the main.py isn't running any more. If I restart the board, the USB device needs ...

Where to get crash information/Serial REPL?

Hi, I'm somewhat used to writing Python, but still make stupid mistakes from time to time (ok, not from time to time, rather often).
