See https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT for more information.

All samples applications here have been tested with the following setup:

• Developpement computer running Ubuntu 15.10, Wily Werewolf, 64bits
• Tested boards:
  • AVR MCU Family:
    • Arduino Mega2560
  • ARM MCU Family:
    • Arduino due
    • Atmel SAMR21-xpro

There are a few package that needs to be installed on the Ubuntu developpement system.

1. Common packages

sudo apt install build-essential g++-multilib screen

2. AVR MCU Family

sudo apt install gcc-avr avr-libc binutils-avr

3. ARM MCU Family

sudo apt install gcc-arm-none-eabi openocd binutils-arm-linux-gnueabi

4. MSP430 MCU Family (but not tested yet)

sudo apt install gcc-msp430 msp430-libc binutils-msp430

Here we suppose all is code is located in ~/work.

1. Clone RIOT code (or your fork)

7$ cd ~/work
$ git clone git@github.com:RIOT-OS/RIOT.git

2. Clone this repository (or your fork)

$ cd ~/work
$ git clone git@github.com:aabadie/riot-apps.git

This repository contains 2 self-documented sample applications:

• The usual "Hello World" shows how to use the build system and display terminal
• "Serial to serial" is a little more complex example showing how to forward messages from one UART interface to another UART interface. This example uses IPC and IRQ concepts of RIOT
