Too few sampled comments (3) to say how often HN recommends it.?

Why HN links it

HN commenters link Wokwi's posts on simulating Arduino AVR code in JavaScript and on using its logic analyzer to learn PWM signals. The comments cite these posts as sources and do not judge the writing.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 3 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

  5. seems to use this AVR simulator in javascript: https://github.com/wokwi/avr8js https://blog.wokwi.com/avr8js-simulate-arduino-in-javascript Very useful to have the C compiler and the microcontroller code simulator both integrated in the same browser window as circuitjs!
