Greetings all;

One path involves Visual Studio which does not seem to be available
for debian, so it appears the platformio path is the one to follow.
But step by step instructions are pretty slim.
Can anyone help get me started?
I don't have any experience with CNCs or MarlinFW, but from what I've
read from documentation [1] [2] it should be pretty straight forward.
First things first you need to install VSCode (Visual Studio Code IDE)
[3]. Which is not available in Debian repos so you have to trust
Microsoft and add their external repos along with trusted gpg key.
After VSCode installation, you can proceed and install "PlatformIO"
which is an extension plugin for VSCode. [4]
To do that, basically you need to press "Ctrl+Shift+X" inside VSCode and
type "PlatformIO" into search bar inside left-side panel and click
Install button.
After that you will have a ready-to-go toolkit for MarlinFW
configuration and compilation, and proceed with further steps, as
described in [4].
