Features

• Bare Metal Development - Provides educational guides for building a kernel from scratch on ARM-based hardware using the Rust programming language.
• Kernel Development - Demonstrates how to interface directly with processor registers and hardware peripherals on ARM-based hardware.
• Raspberry Pi Systems Programming - Develops custom software and low-level drivers specifically for the Raspberry Pi hardware platform.
• Embedded Rust - Implements core operating system components like memory management and interrupt handling without a standard library.
• Operating System Kernels - Constructs core operating system components using low-level programming techniques to manage hardware resources directly.
• System Boot Initializers - Starts the processor from a power-off state and executes the primary entry point to load the operating system kernel.
• Systems Programming - Writes low-level software for resource-constrained hardware devices to manage system execution and interact with physical components.
• Hardware Abstraction Layers - Defines consistent interfaces that decouple core kernel logic from underlying processor and board-specific hardware implementations.
• Board Support Packages - Separates hardware-dependent settings like memory maps and device drivers into a dedicated namespace.
• Static Linking - Combines compiled modules into a single binary image that contains all necessary code to execute without an underlying operating system.
• Peripheral Mappings - Accesses system peripherals and registers by mapping physical memory addresses directly into the kernel address space.
• Entry Points - Provides low-level assembly routines to initialize processor state and transition control to the kernel environment.
• Architecture Isolation - Simplifies cross-platform development by organizing processor-specific instructions into dedicated modules.
