Description

On Linux, the user may need to add udev rules to avoid getting a `SecurityError` when the app tries to communicate with the device in QDL mode

Contributor guide

No contributing guide indexed for this repository

Research direction

Start by locating the user-facing setup documentation and reviewing how the app communicates with the device in QDL mode on Linux. Document the required udev rules and explain that they prevent the SecurityError; done means a Linux user can follow the instructions to communicate with the device successfully.
