TaskScheduler: A Lightweight Cooperative Multitasking Scheduler for Arduino, ESP32, STM32 and Other Microcontrollers

TaskScheduler: A Lightweight Cooperative Multitasking Scheduler for Arduino, ESP32, STM32 and Other Microcontrollers

In embedded development, multitasking is key to improving system efficiency and functionality. For resource-constrained microcontrollers, traditional preemptive multitasking frameworks (like FreeRTOS) can be overly complex and resource-intensive. In this case, the lightweight cooperative multitasking scheduler TaskScheduler becomes an ideal choice. Introduction to TaskScheduler TaskScheduler is a library that provides cooperative multitasking capabilities for microcontrollers such … Read more

Porting Arduino IDE on Fedora 21

Porting Arduino IDE on Fedora 21

Without further ado, let’s get to the point. Last year, I made a small news about getting the latest version of Arduino IDE running on Loongson Fedora 21, but later I found that the serial monitor and serial plotter were completely unusable, which made it very inconvenient to debug Arduino boards on Loongson computers. A … Read more
