Development Philosophy
$ cat ~/.philosophy/embedded_manifesto.txt
"The best embedded UI is one that users forget
is running on a microcontroller."
Principles
• Desktop‑quality UX on microcontrollers
• Zero‑compromise testing and CI
• Hardware‑aware design: constraints inform solutions
• Incremental, reproducible changes; no hidden magic$ echo $WORKFLOW
Small commits, big impact. Test everything, assume nothing.Skills & Tools
