Requirements
This extension requires ModusToolbox™ version 3.2 or later to be installed. It does not work
with ModusToolbox™ 2.x, 3.0, or 3.1.
This extension works best if the 'clangd' extension is installed to manage Intellisense. The
default Microsoft support for 'C/C++' intellisense does not work as well.
