FreeRTOS Video Screen Casts

Over time this page will host a series of screen casts showing you how to get the most out of the FreeRTOS project. The first screen cast is already available and demonstrates how to get up and running as quickly as possible.

Notes:

Screen cast #1 – FreeRTOS quick start guide

Partitioned into 4 equal length parts.

This first screen cast is intended to get you up and running as quickly as possible by guiding you through the FreeRTOS source code and website. It does not attempt to describe any of the more generic technical aspects of using real time kernels in embedded systems as this will be the topic for future videos.
