Embedded Software

For D&Cembedded firmware, we are going to be using a central use a centralized docker container for all projects just to try and make development a bit easier. This docker container is specialized for embedded development to replace the awful and bloated embedded tools and IDE’s we would otherwise have to work with (*cough cough STM32 Microchip TI cough cough*).to contain embedded tools that work best on a single, Linux-based platform. This helps ensure we can allow all members to have easy and consistent access to certain tools that may not be available of work as well on different platforms. While in our setup, you may not manually need to interact with the container much, it is encouraged to understand how and why its used, as its a very industry-standard tool

Installation

1. Install docker. For Mac and Windows, you must install docker desktop instead.

2. If using Windows follow two more steps because Docker for Windows runs on WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux):

   1. Install WSL by running wsl --install

   2. Setup wsl by launching ubuntu from the start menu
