Why do you need automated firmware builds (sometimes called a Continuous Integration (CI) pipeline) for your embedded project? Oftentimes we have found  that customers do not trust their firmware release

Introduction Managing software artifacts efficiently is a critical challenge for software development teams. Whether you are dealing with versioning issues, dependency management, or maintaining previous builds for rollback and debugging,

Introduction Serial communication (UART, RS-232, SPI, I2C, etc) provides the ability to transfer raw data between devices in Embedded Systems. There are a number of challenges to consider when developing

In the world of industrial automation and control systems, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) have been the go-to solution for decades. They offer reliability, stability, and robust performance. However, with advancements

Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a cryptographic protocol that provides secure communication over computer networks. It is the successor to the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol and has become the

Modern embedded development starts with modern practices. Remote work has revolutionized the way that engineering is done, and it is now more possible than ever for traditionally on-site work to

For those creating their own CLI tool If you have played around with any command line interface tools, such as Particle CLI or Git UI, you’ll notice that they oftentimes

Intro As embedded systems complexity grows, firmware development needs more and more tools and build systems to handle it. One common reason to switch from bare metal to a more

Introduction Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) is a software development methodology that focuses on defining the behavior of a system in plain, human-readable language. While commonly associated with end user business requirements

QEMU is an open source machine emulator/virtualizer. Most commonly it’s used for system emulation where it can provide a virtual model of an entire machine (CPU, memory, and emulated devices).
