Hey, I was wondering if we could get a hardware/hackers/makers domain? Interest in Julia has reached out to microcontrollers, 3-D printers, neural interfaces, IoT, tablets, scientific cameras, yadda yadda. Can us matter hackers have a little subdomain to call home?

Might be a good idea to curate the space too! Lots of efforts scattered around that could be integrated into this one. May even be some old packages we can bring back to life?

I think maker can work. Other terms might include embedded systems, and rapid prototyping. P.S. I’m an electrical engineer using Julia in simulations of electromechanical systems (DiffEq stuff), Monte Carlo sims of tolerances, color science work, and I’m interested in using it on Raspberry Pis for …

I was trying to gauge the audience size :slight_smile: tags are Julia Programming Language that authors can use to categorize their topics and before creating a new domain I try to understand how many people are already on this discourse talking about topics related to that. An active Github comm…

I went ahead and created a Maker domain (I was briefly considering whether it would make more sense under the Community tag). The post at About the Maker category is a wiki and the first paragraph is used in the system as a description, so please go ahead and change that to describe what you want th…

@vchuravy - thanks! Is there any chance “Maker” could be capitalized? (Makes it look like an afterthought compared to the rest. :slight_smile: ) @anon92994695 - want to take a shot at an About? I assume ME/EE/Control sims are covered under Simulations and Modelling, so here we are more about emb…

how’s this look to you @Tro3 ? [image] About the Maker category Maker A category to discuss embedded systems, CAD infrastructure, serial/other communications, microcontrollers, and Julia. Makers and matter hackers of all kinds are welcome. Some of us have projects that le…

Hi JuliaMakers , If some members of this org are interested… I did some months ago Nextion.jl It’s an unofficial Julia library to communicate with Itead Nextion display It should be considered as a pre alpha stage… some develoments are still required but I’m quite busy to tackle this now. When I …

I could add my tiny COBS.jl package: https://github.com/yakir12/COBS.jl

I was thinking JuliaEmbedded, but I see that is already exists. https://github.com/JuliaEmbedded
