Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to setup a development environment for CH32V004 microcontroller on my steamdeck without touching the readonly space. CNLohr made a really good boilerplate for that, but i was not able to make it work on my deck.

I'm not sure about what is your development environment, but I highly recommend looking at Nix: an independent package manager and functional language for reproducible software environments. It can be set up on deck without disabling ro https://determinate.systems/posts/nix-on-the-steam-deck

Nix has enormous amount of packages, just look at search.nixos.org. Even if it didn't have what you need, you can then install something like Podman or Distrobox and run whatever you want on any distro you want in a container.

Ok my software background is like a bit of Arduino and a bit of python. So that looks a bit to complicated from my perspective.

If you want to deep dive into Nix then yes, it's a hell of a rabbit hole, but if you just want to use it as a package manager to get whatever typical Linux software, then it's pretty straightforward imho
