Zephyr Project
Build secure, connected, future-proof devices with Zephyr®

Zephyr is an open-source real-time operating system (RTOS) hosted by the Linux Foundation, designed for building embedded and IoT devices. It supports over 1,000 hardware boards and provides a comprehensive set of APIs, drivers, and services for firmware development. The project is community-driven and emphasizes security, safety, and long-term support for production use.
Zephyr provides an open-source RTOS kernel with board support packages, device drivers, and a rich API that developers use to build and deploy firmware on supported hardware.
