Under Docs you will find:

  • How OpenEmber relates to EmberLite
  • A high-level architecture overview
  • Build instructions for the main tree and EmberLite
  • Common ember commands and environment management (add / use / list)

The ecosystem is evolving quickly—if you spot gaps or want new topics, please open an issue or PR on openember-docs.

C keeps call graphs and resource usage easier to reason about and aligns well with MISRA-style rules.

EmberLite is not meant to replace ROS2 or OpenEmber—it gives resource-constrained embedded Linux devices a lightweight node model and pub/sub messaging while staying on the same Kconfig + CMake and ember CLI workflow, so teams can switch repos without relearning tooling.
