acks — Acknowledgments 💖

okay so this page is basically the group chat shoutout slide of the AVR-LibC manual 🎀 it's a whole document whose entire job is to tie together the labors of a huge group of people. And fr fr, without these individuals' efforts we would not have a terrific, free set of tools to develop AVR projects. Not exaggerating. We all owe thanks to:

  • The GCC Team 💅 — they produced a very capable set of development tools, and they did it for an amazing number of platforms and processors. iconic behavior honestly.
  • Denis Chertykov [ denisc@overta.ru ] — for making the AVR-specific changes to the GNU tools. the way that he went in and made it AVR-shaped?? slay.
  • Denis Chertykov and Marek Michalkiewicz [ marekm@linux.org.pl ] — for developing the standard libraries and startup code for AVR-GCC. the standard libraries AND the startup code, bestie. both. ✨
  • Uros Platise — for developing the AVR programmer tool, uisp. king behavior 👑
  • Joerg Wunsch [ joerg@FreeBSD.ORG ] — for adding all the AVR development tools to the FreeBSD [ http://www.freebsd.org ] ports tree, AND for providing the basics for the demo project. two jobs, no notes 🫶
  • Brian Dean [ bsd@bsdhome.com ] — for developing avrdude (which is an alternative to uisp) and for contributing documentation which describes how to use it. also fun fact: avrdude was previously called avrprog. the rebrand ate. 💀
  • Eric Weddington [ eweddington@cso.atmel.com ] — for maintaining the WinAVR package, which is the whole reason the continued improvements to the open source AVR toolchain stayed available to many users. lowkey the people's hero 🧚
  • Rich Neswold — for writing the original avr-tools document (which he graciously allowed to be merged into this document) and for his improvements to the demo project. a merge and a glow-up, we love to see it 🌈
  • Theodore A. Roth — for having been a long-time maintainer of many of the tools: AVR-LibC, the AVR port of GDB, AVaRICE, uisp, avrdude. that's a whole roster, main character energy for real 👑
  • All the people who currently maintain the tools, and/or have submitted suggestions, patches and bug reports. (See the AUTHORS files of the various tools.) you are seen and you are appreciated 🍓
  • And lastly, all the users who use the software 💜 — like, if nobody used the software, we would probably not be very motivated to continue to develop it. Keep those bug reports coming. ;-)
no cap: every single one of these people is load-bearing. go say hi to them in your head. 🌸

okay that's the whole page bestie, we're done here 🦋

signing off with all the love — this was acks(3avr) from AVR-LibC, Version 2.2.1 💅💖✨
