Set Up

1. Install Playdate SDK: https://play.date/dev/
2. Set PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH env var to point at the SDK install dir.
3. Install clang: https://releases.llvm.org/download.html
   • For windows look for a .exe file on the GitHub release page. It doesn't say clang in the name but it's there.

Building for device

1. rustup target add thumbv7em-none-eabihf
2. cargo build --release --lib --target thumbv7em-none-eabihf
3. The build will print "dropping unsupported crate type cdylib" warning. This is normal and expected when building for the device.
