# ARM Microcontroller Frameworks Here are some firmware development frameworks for certain 32-bit [ARM](http://www.arm.com) (Advanced RISC Machine) single chip microcontrollers. I began in 2006 with my own somewhat vendor independent [GCC C/C++](https://gcc.gnu.org) development framework. I am interested in alternatives to the traditional GCC development environment, so there are also some experiments with [Alire Ada](https://pico-doc.synack.me), [Arduino C++](https://www.arduino.cc), [Astrobe Oberon](http://www.astrobe.com), [GHI Electronics TinyCLR C#](https://www.ghielectronics.com/tinyclr), [MicroPython](https://micropython.org), and [mikroPascal](https://www.mikroe.com/mikropascal-arm) for ARM microcontrollers. ## Framework Status | | | |---------------------------------------|---------------| | [Alire Ada](alire) | Investigation | | [Arduino C++](arduino) | Active | | [Astrobe Oberon](astrobe) | Investigation | | [GCC C/C++](gcc) | Frozen | | [GHI Electronics TinyCLR C#](tinyclr) | Investigation | | [MicroPython](micropython) | Investigation | | [mikroPascal](mikropascal) | Frozen | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Questions or comments to Philip Munts
