  • tock

    A secure embedded operating system for microcontrollers

  • I’ve seen a few attempts at this sort of thing for microcontrollers, the one that jumps to mind first being TockOS (https://www.tockos.org). I’m not sure whether Zephyr has something similar, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it did.

  • businesscard-linux

    A Buildroot distribution small enough to run on my business card

  • Using a linux-based system might be more cheaper than you think (especially if you are buying in bulk). For instance, https://www.thirtythreeforty.net/posts/2019/12/my-business-card-runs-linux/ Now the author researched extensively and found suitable AllWinner chips. So you might have to do that as well if you go this route.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
