It has just been promoted to the main release, and supports the RP2040.

I&#39;m not of course suggesting the latter is never useful, just that there&#39;s a time and a place for it all.&nbsp;I like that even simple real-time tasks can be eye-openers to see how to think when using an OS,&nbsp;and becomes easy to see the benefits!</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=27247&AppID=86&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
