The world of embedded systems is rapidly evolving — developers are no longer tied to clunky toolchains or restrictive environments. Studio is a lightweight, console & HTML/JS -based development toolkit designed to streamline microcontroller workflows. It is already working with the PIC16F628.
What is Studio?
Studio is a new development environment that allows users to:
- Flash microcontrollers (starting with PIC16F628)
- Run applications directly in console mode
- Control GPIO pins via a web browser
This setup removes friction for developers who want speed and flexibility.
Web-Controlled GPIO: How It Works
Once the MCU is flashed, the Studio toolkit launches a console app. From there, users can access GPIO controls from a browser-based interface. This means:
- No extra software installs
- Remote access and interaction
- Real-time debugging from anywhere
Supported and Future Microcontrollers
Currently supported:
- PIC16F628
Next candidates:
- PIC16F886
- Renesas (for Arduino R4 Minima)
- PIC24F Familly
- STM/NXP Famillies
- WCH (CH32V003, CH32V307)
Community input will help determine which platforms come next.
Why It Matters for Developers
- Lightweight: Works on minimal hardware
- Web-first: No bulky IDEs
- Extensible: More chips and features are being added
Whether you're building a DIY IoT project or a commercial embedded product, Studio provides a clean and simple environment to build smarter systems.
