# Zig Embedded Group

This group was formed to document and improve the embedded programming experience with the [Zig programming language](https://ziglang.org).

## Goals

- Provide documents on how to get started with embedded programming (for absolute newbies)
- Provide example snippets for certain architectures (LPC, STM32, AVR, ...)
- Create register definition libraries
- Create a common interface/HAL over several architectures
- Create a <i>performant</i> common set of drivers for external platforms

## Introduction to embedded programming

If you've never done any embedded development before, it's a good point to start with one of our tutorials:

  - [Arduino/AVR](#)
  - [LPC1768](#)
  - [STM32](#)
  - [MSP430](#)
  - [ESP2866/ESP32](#)
  - [NRF52](#)
  - [Raspberry PI](#)
  - [Raspberry PI Pico](#)
- [What device to chose?](#)
- [Introduction to HAL9001](#)
