About PlatformIO

Professional collaborative platform for embedded development. PlatformIO is a next-generation, collaborative platform for embedded development that enables customers to save resources and time by vastly reducing the expenses and labor associated with creating and maintaining product software. We believe the embedded systems industry desperately needs reinvention. Not only are the IDEs and tools built with technology from the 1990s, but they involve many complex requirements and platform-dependent configurations that turn away talented developers from becoming embedded engineers. The most loved IDE solution for Microsoft Visual Studio Code. A user-friendly and extensible integrated development environment with a set of professional development instruments, providing modern and powerful features to speed up yet simplify the creation and delivery of embedded products. PlatformIO is written in pure Python and doesn't depend on any additional libraries/tools from an operation system.

Quickly identify, prioritize, and resolve performance problems – memory bloat, N+1 queries, slow database queries, and more – with an agent that instruments the dependencies you need at a fraction of the overhead.

    "This is my go to MCU IDE."

    Posted 2024-10-18

    Pros: This works with all MCUs supported by my Company except TMS320 series. The IDE gives us a consistent look and feel between processors and compilers. The documentation is excellent.

    Cons: If I had to find a con it is that some of the TMS320 is not supported.

    Overall: I am sold on this product. We standardized our test lab to write firmware using PlatformIO as our primary IDE.
