Issue #183

Dear ,

Welcome back to the Embedded Bytes newsletter!

In this issue, I’ve collected a few key insights to help you modernize your embedded development practices and ultimately build faster, smarter firmware:

• Getting Started with Zephyr RTOS

• The Real Cost of Delivering Embedded Systems Late

I’m also happy to announce that I will speak at the Embedded Systems Summit this October in Silicon Valley. I have two sessions that I will be giving:

• Faster. Smarter. Firmware. Modern Practices for Building Better Embedded Systems

• Zepyr Developer Bootcamp – A one-day hands-on workshop for professional developers.

I hope you’ll join us for this Summit! It’s organized by engineers and for engineers, so the sessions and training are deeper than at a typical conference.

Happy Coding,
