Individual skill
native-sim
Host-based simulation using the Zephyr native_sim board. Covers building for Linux/macOS/Windows, automated testing, host-side debugging (GDB, Valgrind), and host-target integration. Trigger when developing application logic without hardware or setting up CI/CD tests.

# Zephyr Native Simulation
Develop, test, and debug Zephyr applications with the speed and convenience of your host machine.
## Core Workflows
### 1. Simulation Basics
Understand when to use `native_sim` vs. QEMU and how to map host resources.
- **Reference**: **[simulation_basics.md](references/simulation_basics.md)**
- **Key Tools**: `west build -b native_sim`.
### 2. Host-Side Debugging
Use professional host tools to find the most elusive bugs.
