Devlog 22 - New UART Port, better drivers

I took a break from programming and decided to go back to PCB design, I replaced the screen pinout, and, more importantly, added an debug UART pin so you can get logging, while on it, I realized I would have to move a bunch of connectors! So i spent over an hour painfully rerouting, only to realize it broke more, I also had to rethink the pull up resistors because those had nowhere to go, anyways, thankfully everything’s working now, so i’m happy.
After that break, I decided that I would start the handler for incoming host messages, but, for some reason, which I dont know, I started doing the README??? anyways, the readme is very pretty and has instructions on how to compile now, so that’s great ^^. Then, for some reason I decided to do the driver again?? I improved it, and it now gets the serial port using VID and PID, wayy better, it was just painful figuring out for the first time how to use results!
And on a more unrelated note: If you noticed, yes, I’m purposefully delaying the CAD part because it’s been hell whenever I tried it, fusion 360 simply won’t run and I’m not sure if onshape is good for polishing, also I’m so scared of the deadline cuz I’m not sure if JLCPCB can get the parts here in time, the BOM is also scaring me, seems so complicated.
