We now have a couple of options letting us decide how we want to build the firmware.

• Debug
  This is the default environment and does not need to be explicitly chosen. It includes extensive logging, making it ideal for initial setup and troubleshooting, as it provides comprehensive visibility into the system’s operation.

• _release
  Has a lot less debugging, may also be missing some things available only in debug for debug purposes, this should be flashed when everything is working.

Press left click on the Select Board dropdown, then choose your desired board from the list. Once you've selected your board, click Confirm to move on to the next step.
