New – FreeRTOS Extended Maintenance Plan for Up to 10 Years
Last AWS re:Invent 2020, we announced FreeRTOS Long Term Support (LTS) that offers a more stable foundation than standard releases, as manufacturers deploy and later update devices in the field.

Community members can earn reputation…

The pillar is designed as a tool to track your progress toward policies and best practices that support a more sustainable future, not just a simple checklist. The Shared…
