Professional ARM Cortex M3 Development System With Eclipse-Based IDE Starting At 85 Dollars
There are two worlds when it comes to the programming of embedded applications, one for hobbyists and engineers involved in rapid prototyping and one for "professional" programmers. The first one is represented by hardware platforms such as the Arduino, Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone, and others. The second is dominated by non-standard and thus expensive hardware systems [...]
