Hello, Just thought i'd share this find with you guys. A few years ago i started work on a large and complex embedded development and had a look around at the available uprocessors, and in particular available development boards and level of support (forum sample code etc). And well at the time although i wanted to use ARM they only had limit development platforms and nothing that compared with MicroChip i terms of code support and forum etc. Hence i built the project on the MicroChips DSP platform.
Well things have changed, I was chatting to Jib last night about a robot arm he is building. So i got on the web to look at what he was working on and found something wonderful. ARM just go friendly as they now have a large range of dev boards, very active forum and lots of code samples to get you going. Plus an online compiler, basically you write your c++ upload link it to the mbed site, compile it online, download it to a bin file and drag and drop into you ARM USB connected device. Mazzing: I think they just killed MicroChips and Arduino. https://docs.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os-handbook/en/5.1/getting_started/blinky_compiler/ The internet of things is about to get much bigger. Thanks for the heads up Jib. Ian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Potteries Hackspace" group.
