Embedder

Embedder is an AI coding agent for embedded software development.

It understands your hardware and technical documents, enabling you write and test firmware faster.

Get Started

1. Install the Extension

Search for Embedder in the VS Code Extensions Marketplace, or click here to install.

The extension will automatically install the Embedder CLI on first activation.

2. Select Platform & Peripherals

If your hardware is not supported, visit app.embedder.com and upload:

• Datasheets
• Reference manuals
• Schematics
• Application notes
• Safety standards

Contact help@embedder.com to suggest additions to our MCU/peripheral catalog.

3. Open the Chat Panel

Open the Embedder chat panel from the sidebar or run the Embedder: Open Chat command. You'll be prompted to log in with your account on first use.

What Makes Embedder Different

Embedder is purpose-built for embedded systems:

• Hardware-Aware: Understands microcontroller peripherals (GPIO, SPI, I²C, UART, ADC, DMA, timers, interrupts), memory constraints, and real-time requirements.

• Documentation Intelligence: Indexes your datasheets, reference manuals, and schematics to generate code grounded in your actual hardware specs.

• Real Hardware Integration: Connects directly with serial ports, debuggers, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes to validate and debug on physical devices without switching tools.

• Embedded Expertise: Deep knowledge of RTOS systems (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, ThreadX), low-level driver development, and MISRA-C/C++ compliance.

• Cited Outputs: Every code generation includes inline references to specific datasheet sections, register definitions, and application notes.

Supported Platforms

Works with any embedded platform, including:

• MCUs: ESP32, STM32, nRF, Raspberry Pi Pico, Arduino, PIC, MSP430, and more
• Toolchains: GCC-ARM, GCC-RISC-V, IAR, Keil, LLVM, and vendor-specific compilers
• Build systems: PlatformIO, CMake, Make, Ninja
