Discussion: AVR programming (Zig / education)
I was wondering how well AVR programming is supported.
Lot's of educational resources are using the Arduino Uno (or Arduino Nano).
Also there is this book: "Make: AVR programming" which uses C to teach people how to write software for hardware.
With good AVR support, you've already good (educational) resources available to start with Zig / microzig I can imagine.
Zig currently has shaky support for AVR, unfortunately. It would have to improve before we could do this. We actually currently have the AVR builds disabled in CI.

On what "level" does the problem lie? Would using Microchip's linker and init files linking in and calling main written in Zig help in any way?
