Theo's preferred way of handling try/catch in TypeScript
// Types for the result object with discriminated union
type Success<T> = {
data: T;
error: null;
};
type Failure<E> = {
data: null;
error: E;
};

A tutorial to upgrade NXT pocket C.H.I.P to Debian Buster

Pocket Chip Debian 10 Upgrade Guide

The purpose of this tutorial is to walk through the required steps to upgrade NXT chip (or pocketchip) from debian jessie to debian buster.

If you would like to start your Chip from scratch, follow the steps in the Preparation section.

Preparation (Optional)

A linux host machine, recommended Ubuntu 18.04. However I managed to do it with 20.10 with some tweak.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.
