The Zephyr OS is based on a small-footprint kernel designed for use on
resource-constrained and embedded systems: from simple embedded
environmental sensors and LED wearables to sophisticated embedded
controllers, smart watches, and IoT wireless applications.
From
Zephyr Project Documentation
We would look at initializing the environment and installing necessary dependencies.
This is Part 1 in the series of post on Zephyr OS.
In Part 2 we would look at
an Example of Blinky program running on
STM32F3DISCOVERY Board
. In Part 3 we look at how to get started with Application Development
on Zephyr OS using our custom blinky projects on
STM32F3 Discovery Board

Jupyter is great tool for Python development. It’s an open-source web application that
allows you to create and share documents that contain live code,
equations, visualizations and narrative text.
It’s used for data cleaning, scrapping and transformation, numerical simulation, statistical modeling,
data visualization, machine learning, and much more.
In-fact, I have already used it in some of my hardware projects.
Let’s Get this installed in our machines.
And have some fun !

Many of us Windows users try to have Visual Studio environment.
But that’s not always great option. Unless you are ready to download 8GB
on your internet bandwidth.
I personally like Visual Studio and its fast upcoming cousin
VS Code. But hate the large download part.
Hence an opensource alternative is a need of the hour.
Also if you like to compile linuxy style code with Makefile in all its
glory.
MinGW64 at your service friend!

Working with DietPi, we found going back and forth between
the Raspberry Pi and PC very time consuming.
Fortunately DietPi provides a PC distribution
with x86_x64 configuration.
Though they had both VM Ware and Virtual Box
files but they did not work for us.
So we decided to download the
Native PC for BIOS/CSM (BETA) option.
We later found out this is just a .img file,
we could not directly use it with Virtual Box
