Node.js 16 is no longer supported, so we can drop support for it as
well.
This also means updating a whole lot of GitHub Actions versions, because
they were updated to work on Node.js 20 instead. For most actions this
should be a relatively small change, but the upload-aftifact action has
had some major changes (which should generally improve things a lot).
This adds a flake.nix file that makes it possible to quickly create a
development environment.
You can download Nix here, for use on your Linux or macOS system:
https://nixos.org/download.html
After you have installed Nix, you can enter the development environment
as follows:
nix develop
This drops you into a bash shell, where you can install TinyGo simply
using the following command:
go install
That's all! Assuming you've set up your $PATH correctly, you can now use
the tinygo command as usual:
tinygo version
You can also do many other things from this environment. Building and
flashing should work as you're used to: it's not a VM or container so
there are no access restrictions.
