Lightning Talk: Zephyr in Education
summary
Course uses Zephyr for labs like dining philosophers on a custom green baseboard stacked with an STM Discovery kit; students implement mutexes, semaphores and real-time fixes. Development environment is a Debian container baseline with Zephyr SDK and west, exported as a WSL distro for Windows. Boards are flashed from host with J Flash Light. Setup proves reproducible and fast, every student ends with a working environment and builds are fastest via the WSL image.
