The firmware is developed with the following environment:
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| Microcontroller | ATmega1284P (Datasheet) |
| IDE | Visual Studio Code with PlatformIO (Windows 11 Environment) Info |
| Programmer | USBasp - USB programmer for Atmel AVR controllers |
To download the firmware to the microcontroller either use a precompiled .hex file from a release or rebuild the project from the source files using the above IDE.
To download the .hex file you can use any programmer of your choice.
Make sure the fuse bits of the microcontroller are set as described in the main.cpp file.

Do the following steps to create a release:
- Make sure that everything is committed to the master branch and builds without errors.
- Update the Changelog and commit it to the master.
- Checkout a new release branch (adapt the version accordingly):
git checkout -b release/v0.0.0 - Update the VERSION in the version.h file: Replace the "[NO_RELEASE]" string by the version number (e.g. "v0.0.0")
- Create a new commit (adapt the version accordingly):
git add .andgit commit -m "Created release v0.0.0" - Tag the release commit (adapt the version accordingly):
git tag v0.0.0 - Push everything:
git push --set-upstream origin release/v0.0.0andgit push --tags
