The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Best way to create a gui in c on windows/ linux using clion
I've used https://github.com/azure-rtos/guix for a few years to run a UI application on an embedded system. It's far from perfect, but probably still better than developing everything yourself.

Microsoft opens sources ThreadX RTOS used in Raspberry Pis
It is not open source. The source code is open but with an evaluation, i.e. proprietary license:

Eclipse ThreadX
License looked alright, until I came across this: https://github.com/azure-rtos/threadx/blob/a8e5d0946c31385ff...

PlatformIO and Zephyr is a bad idea
Portability, mainly. Zephyr runs on a wide variety of architectures and 450+ variations of popular boards are already supported upstream (adding more often being pretty easy). In your particular example, your own preferences with regards to building on top of open-source software may play a role too. For example, Azure RTOS is not open source, and its license will, among other things, prevent you to use it in production on other hardware than what's listed herehere. So easily moving from one hardware vendor / SoC to the other might be a problem, should this be a requirement (and it kind of becomes one for a lot of people in these times if silicon shortage)

Linux vs. QNX/VxWorks for a climate control system - Education
Honestly as long as you use one of the supported MCU families ThreadX is probably a better choice these days given how much better NetX is over FreeRTOS’ TCP implementation.

As a guess, what percentage of embedded projects actually need the R in RTOS?
Azure RTOS/ThreadX is only free on approved pre-licensed uCs, but with that said, there's a ton of devices covered by it so it's an option for a lot of projects.

What are some cool modern libraries you enjoy using?
I'm interested in something equivalent to tx_byte_pool but for non-embedded usage where I want a custom allocator for defined pools. Do you know if mimalloc can do this? I see it has custom heaps, but I didn't see any functions to create one from raw memory.

Thoughts? They look great though!
source is apparently available but no idea what licensing it uses
