Wishlist for tools/docs/libs

What are some docs, tools or other resources that the eBPF ecosystem is missing? For instance, we don't have a eBPF debugger AFAIK. It might be good to have a "wishlist" section in the README if there is content.
(Some user space debuggers exist, GDB has some support and I saw edb which seems at an early stage. You could also run GDB on a user space interpreter like uBPF or rbpf.)
This list would be interesting to have, but I'm not sure it should be part of the awesome-list itself. I would be happy to mention it here, though.
Note: “what the ecosystem is missing” can be very wide, and possibly subjective. Do you count the feature requests in libbpf? In https://xdp-project.net/? I'm not saying this is a bad idea, I'm just not sure where I would start it from.
Yeah it is broad. I was thinking more in terms of eBPF development tools as opposed to a eBPF feature wish list. Sometimes I find myself wondering if there is a tool that would help me solve a problem like debugging, reading elf file (readelf cmd), etc. then I eventually find it (like using a user space interpreter like you suggested). However, the list I'm thinking about might not be relevant to this project. Thanks for the info anyways.
Cheers.
You're welcome, thank you for suggesting. Again, if you find or create this list, I'm happy to link it from the current project!
