description	Provides the complete Embedded Swift documentation for developing on microcontrollers, embedded systems, and baremetal applications.

Embedded Swift

Embedded Swift is a compilation and language mode that enables development of baremetal, embedded and standalone software in Swift

Documentation Structure

Getting Started

• Introduction to Embedded Swift (GettingStarted/Introduction.md): Write Swift code for microcontrollers, embedded systems, and bare-metal applications
• Language subset (GettingStarted/LanguageSubset.md): Details of the Embedded Swift language subset compared to full Swift
• Install Embedded Swift (GettingStarted/InstallEmbeddedSwift.md): Get the tools needed to use Embedded Swift

Guided Examples

• Getting started with Embedded Swift (GettingStarted/WaysToGetStarted.md): Possible directions to explore to start using Embedded Swift
• Try out Embedded Swift on macOS (GuidedExamples/macOSGuide.md): Tutorial for building a simple program for your host OS with Embedded Swift
• Raspberry Pi Pico Blink (Pico SDK) (GuidedExamples/PicoGuide.md): Tutorial for targetting a Raspberry Pi Pico as an embedded device that runs a simple Swift program
• Baremetal Setup for STM32 with Embedded Swift (GuidedExamples/STM32BaremetalGuide.md): Program a STM32 microcontroller directly with low-level Swift code

Using Embedded Swift

• Basics of using Embedded Swift (UsingEmbeddedSwift/Basics.md): Basic information for using Embedded Swift in typical embedded projects
• Strings (UsingEmbeddedSwift/Strings.md): How to enable full Unicode-compliant string support in Embedded Swift
• Conditionalizing compilation for Embedded Swift (UsingEmbeddedSwift/ConditionalCompilation.md): How to share code between Embedded Swift and full Swift using conditional compilation
• Libraries and modules in Embedded Swift (UsingEmbeddedSwift/Libraries.md): Understand the library setup and linkage model of Embedded Swift
• External dependencies (UsingEmbeddedSwift/ExternalDependencies.md): What external system dependencies should you expect from Embedded Swift compilations
• Existentials (UsingEmbeddedSwift/Existentials.md): Restrictions on existentials ("any" types) that apply in Embedded Swift
