Hello everyone, I hesitated to write about my plans for 2020 as in the previous year I did not succeed with my goals regarding Genode and Raspberry Pi. It was mostly due to underestimating the amount of required work and maybe more important due to different personal issues that limited amount of spare time to the level that I was merely able to catch up with changes in official repository from time to time. Now with the new year started I'm again full of optimism. After all the work done in base-hw (mostly by Stefan) it seems to be much easier and in a more natural way to introduce support for different hardware (rpi versions in my case) and I hope to be able to finish and cleanup my code enough to be incorporated to genode and genode-world repositories during this year. I believe that Sculpt like scenarios working on Raspberry Pi could arouse interest in Genode.
Yes, this would be great. I have a Pi 4, which I would love to experiment with Sculpt, as well as run as a simple Genode-based server.
On a completely different territory I'd like to investigate possibilities to allow working with Genode code in some big programming environments - I'm thinking about Eclipse since I have some experience with it. I understand that everyone here knows organisation of code in Genode repository well enough to know where to look and finding proper places for modifications/improvements and I'm also getting used to it but I also remember how hard it was for me year ago to browse the code. Nowadays programmers are used to have code completion and integrated debugging in one environment and I think that such integration would lower the amount of time required to start coding for Genode and potentially attract new people.
I also would love to have an IDE (whether Eclipse or a lighter alternative), and I agree that it could help attract more casual developers.
Keep us informed as you progress on these items (and if you want testers)! Thanks, John J. Karcher devu...@alternateapproach.com _______________________________________________ Genode users mailing list users@lists.genode.org https://lists.genode.org/listinfo/users
