Zephyr Documentation BoF
summary
Recent work makes concrete claims and shows tools: an interactive code sample catalog (live for ~1–1.5 years) and a new board search that indexes 800+ boards (up from ~400–500), backed by automated hello world builds that generate device tree metadata. Backend fixes come from Arduino and Silicon Labs. Search and sample linking mostly work but miss some drivers and API links; demos occasionally fail to find generic drivers. Plans focus on reorganizing the homepage, clearer persona-based paths, and adding prominent contributor and API references.
