Example Applications - jonas-rem/RIOT GitHub Wiki

RIOT provides a couple of a example applications to demonstrate some important features and functionalities of the operating system. These examples can be found in the example directory in RIOT's root directory. More application can be found in an external repository at https://github.com/RIOT-OS/applications. These applications are not maintained as part of the main repository and might not work on all supported boards at all time.

The following gives a short overview about the example applications. More detailed information can be found in the README files inside the corresponding example application directory.

arduino_hello-world

This application shows how you can run Arduino sketches on top or RIOT.

default

Demonstrates some basic features like the shell, reading sensors, or sending packets directly over the link layer. The scope of this application varies between different boards.

gnrc_border_routert

This example provides 6LoWPAN border router on any node that is equipped with an additional IPv6 capable network interface or a second serial port.
