Question 1

How to choose an RTOS for my embedded project?

Accepted Answer

This list compares open-source and commercial RTOSes like FreeRTOS and INTEGRITY, but you'll need to evaluate based on your project's requirements for real-time performance, safety certifications, and community support as outlined in the RTOS section.

Question 2

What are the best testing frameworks for embedded C code?

Accepted Answer

Awesome Embedded lists frameworks like CppUTest and unity, which are designed for embedded systems with a focus on memory constraints, but consider factors like integration ease and support for your target platform.

Question 3

Rust vs C for embedded systems: which is better?

Accepted Answer

The list includes resources for Rust in embedded contexts, such as hubris and rust-embedded, but the choice depends on safety needs, performance, and team expertise; C is more established, while Rust offers memory safety advantages.

Question 4

How to implement CoAP on a microcontroller?

Accepted Answer

This directory points to CoAP implementations like libcoap and microcoap, but you'll need to consult their documentation for setup, as the list doesn't provide implementation details or step-by-step guides.

Question 5

Is MicroPython good for IoT devices?

Accepted Answer

MicroPython is listed as an alternative language; it's suitable for rapid prototyping on constrained devices due to its Python-like syntax, but for performance-critical apps, C/C++ might be more appropriate based on resource limits.
