Introduction
Hello everyone, I'm one of the maintainers of the next-generation Arduino CMake project.
As years have passed, this project has died, with no one left to maintain it.
It is so abandoned that there isn't even a chance to switch maintainers, since the project owner has disappeared. It's a shame that such a great idea (and implementation) would be demised because of this.
However, the community is alive, more then ever, with a lot of great minds contributing to the open source. The Arduino CMake Organization is a living proof of that.
Project's Resurrection
We at the Arduino CMake Organization have managed to release a stable, fine-grained, up-to-date version of the Arduino CMake Toolchain by resurrecting the community, adding must-have features and fixing critical bugs that haven't been solved by this project as the original Arduino Project has progressed a lot during those years.
We aim to constantly get better, providing support for all kinds of issues, including:
- Support for non-AVR boards
- Support for USB-bound boards
- Performance (Build time & size, CMake script efficiency, etc.)
- And a lot more
Why Does It Matter?
If you still wonder why I've posted this issue, it is to invite you to join our community and contribute to the Arduino-CMake project, which is far from dead.
Unfortunately, many people still refer to this repository as the main project to address the Arduino-CMake integration, and don't even know that a newer, active development exists. This post attempts and "lure" them, including you, the reader, to use our repository instead. It is for your best experience, trust me.
Summary
To sum it up, the Arduino CMake Organization invites you to join us in a combined effort to resurrect the Arduino-CMake community, and continue the development of the project. We hope to see you soon!
Made with Love.
