Developing Nut/OS Applications
Application development is done on a PC running Linux, Windows or Mac OS X. See the [[../tools/index.html|Tools]] page for more information.
Check the [[../../api/index.html|Online API Documentation]] for a complete list of provided functions. Use this along with the API documentation of your runtime library, like Newlib for ARM and avr-libc or the ImageCraft runtime library for AVR targets.
If you are interested in the latest beta, then try the Beta API documentation. It is available [[../../api-beta/index.html|online]].
A very good way of learning to write Nut/OS applications is studying the NutWiki Examples.
Several [[../documents/nutapps.html|Nut/OS Samples]] are also included in the distribution.

[[../documents/arm-exceptions.html|ARM Exception Handling]]
Nut/OS doesn't provide any exception handling by default. This document shows how to implement an exception handler within your application.
[[../documents/arm-inline-asm.html|ARM GCC Inline Assembler Cookbook]]
The GNU C compiler for ARM RISC processors offers to embed assembly language code into C programs. This cool feature may be used for manually optimizing time critical parts of the software or to use specific processor instruction, which are not available in the C language.
