Since Mbed has been abandoned as a project many are saying that Remora is a dead end project.
What should Mbed be replaced with?
Save the libraries?
Make Remora compatible with something else?

I don't believe that the RP2040 version uses any Mbed libs.

Who says that I will fight you guys

but your pretty quick, cap

Its not dead for another 2 years, but I actually started replacing mbed a few weeks ago for other reasons.

Makes no difference though, the core is pretty much the same across the remoras. Only the rpi spi one uses mbed anyways. It could be made to work with stm lib on PIO

this is the repo I plan to work out of because its cleaner

I just have to figure out this cmake business first

This topic came up nearly 2 years ago when I started to look at the STM32H7.

forum.linuxcnc.org/18-computer/42276-rem...spi?start=590#252207

Something that we'll need address at some point and some learning curve as Mbed does make things simple to have a code base for multiple targets. The use of submodules was suggested but I never really got deep into understanding how we could re-structure things.

grblhal is a good model for how remora is now, across multi framework.
Im mainly trying to do the mbed ce because it has better G0/H7 support (nobody making F4 boards) , but it supports everything that has remora firmware. its not as easy to setup as mbed was, but its easier than cubeide. Eithwer way, I can figure out this DMAMUX on the new stm chips, and mbed ce has an SPI DMA api, so I thought I would give it a try

But its not as if Mbed is dead, just Arms support/development of mbed. the CMSIS RTOS is still there, as well as the new community fork. the part that is gone is the tidy easy to use prepackaged mbed.
