The native simulator is an evolution of Zephyr's native_posix and the POSIX architecture.

It is a basic part of Zephyr's test and debug infrastructure which allows you to build, run and debug your code directly in your host, instrumenting it however you want.

In this talk we will cover:

* An introduction to the native simulator in Zephyr.

* Why does it exist: What one can do with it, and how we use it in Zephyr.

* The native simulator based targets we have in Zephyr.

* How does it work: A brief description of its architecture and what it supports.

* What the average user needs to know ("I just want to run my tests on it, what are the gotchas").

* What a power user needs to know ("I want to write my own driver to interact with a host peripheral, how?").
