+//! Sends "Hello, world!" through the ITM port 0
+//!
+//! ITM is much faster than semihosting. Like 4 orders of magnitude or so.
+//!
+//! **NOTE** Cortex-M0 chips don't support ITM.
+//!
+//! You'll have to connect the microcontroller's SWO pin to the SWD interface. Note that some
+//! development boards don't provide this option.
+//!
+//! You'll need [`itmdump`] to receive the message on the host plus you'll need to uncomment two
+//! `monitor` commands in the `.gdbinit` file.
+//!
+//! [`itmdump`]: https://docs.rs/itm/0.2.1/itm/
