Comparing Firmware Development Environments — Linux, Windows, WSL2, and VMWare | Interrupt

About a year and a half ago, I decided to take a different approach to setting up a Zephyr environment for a new project at Intercreate. Instead of using my trusty VMWare Workstation Linux VM, I opted for WSL2. I was curious to find out: Would hardware pass-through for debugging work reliably? Would all of the tooling dependencies be supported? What about build system performance?

Or simply don’t use Zephyr, where everything is constrained.
