...and then visit https://github.com/probe-rs/vscode#vs-code-probe-rs-debugger for instructions on how to install the VSCode plugin. Here's an example though given 0.3.4 of the plugin (you may wish to check the site to determine the latest version):
wget https://github.com/probe-rs/vscode/releases/download/v0.3.4/probe-rs-debugger-0.3.4.vsix -O /tmp/probe-rs-debugger-0.3.4.vsix
code --install-extension /tmp/probe-rs-debugger-0.3.4.vsix
You should also install the CodeLLDB plugin from the Visual Studio Code market place so that you are
able to debug unit tests.
