New dev container (works with VS Code's remote dev tools)
In-container USB support for flashing to hardware
Better build tasks and debug targets for VS Code

calebchalmers commented 1 year ago

For the VS Code tasks, I'm removing the pipenv run part in order to allow them to be used inside the dev container (which doesn't need pipenv). These can still be used outside the container by opening VS Code from within a pipenv shell.

i.e. open the robomaster/ut-robomaster directory in a terminal and run pipenv run code ..

I reworked the scons options with the following changes:

Specifying a robot type is now required (I've flashed the wrong code too many times :sob: )
Valid robot types are now standard, hero, and sentry (rather than TARGET_STANDARD, etc.)

e.g. scons build robot=standard
