Zephyr Project: Unlocking IoT Innovation with an Open Source RTOS
summary
Open-source Zephyr RTOS (launched 2016) claims product deployments now — Nordic lighting mesh, ProGlove barcode glove, GPS trackers on garbage trucks, smart watches and reindeer tags — and records nearly 12,000 repo clones in two weeks with ~1,900 unique cloners. Codebase shows ~31,000 commits and about 499 contributors, supports six architecture families and a native POSIX port, ~170 board ports, Bluetooth LE 4.2/5.0 and mesh, and ships an April first LTS; roadmap targets an IEC 61508 subset for safety certification plus ongoing Coverity and security work.
