Have you ever seen Linux running on an Arduino? I hadn't. That’s why I developed this...
A Linux distribution that runs on the Arduino UNO R4 WiFi.
NOTE I designed this for the Arduino UNO R4 WiFi, so I have no idea if it runs on other microcontrollers.
Installation is very simple.
- Enter your network details on lines 3 and 4.
- Upload the code to the Arduino.
- Open the Serial Monitor and check for an IP address.
- Open your browser and enter that IP address.
NOTE Because the graphical interface is quite resource-intensive, it may take a while to start up, but once it’s running, it is lightning-fast.
It should normally have started up after waiting about 10 minutes.
Once it has started, it is self-explanatory.
You should have:
- Home
- File System
- Terminal
- Text Editor
- Settings
- System Monitor
- Network
- Trash.
If you want to see the full list of commands, simply type "help" in the terminal.
I won't give away too many spoilers.
I hope this inspires people.
Best regards, the developer, Noa Raats.
