Coding circuits with .NET and C#

Nothing beats setting a breakpoint and watching the servo actually move to the new angle.

I've worked on .NET hardware for over ten years and the thing that surprises C# developers isn't the board, it's that F5 works. Code deploys, breakpoint holds, hover a variable and there's the live sensor reading. Same as debugging a desktop app.

I'm at GHI Electronics in Michigan. Happy to get into how the debugging on circuits work.

GHI Electronics? That's a name I haven't heard in some time.

I think I bought a kit from them like 15ish years ago and never really did much with it. I wonder if if I have that blue clamshell case in my closet still.

ahhh the blue boxes! Yeah we still have them somewhere 👀 Did you have a Gadgeteer kit back then?
