It achieves this goal, though it is almost entirely written in the C programming language. As a consequence it can be easily ported to any 8-, 16-, or32-bit microcontroller .XMK comes as two independent packages: the XMK Scheduler that contains the core kernel, everything necessary to run a multithreaded embedded application, and the Application Programming Layer (APL) that provides higher level functions atop the XMK Scheduler API.
The XMK distribution contains no standard libraries such as
libc that should be part of the development tools for target systems.External links
