After almost four years as Head of Engineering at Onalabs, I'm closing this chapter. A look back at how I joined the company, what we built together, and the team that made this journey unforgettable.
In this article, we'll see how to implement a Continuous Integration (CI) server for embedded systems using a Raspberry Pi as a Self-Hosted GitHub Action Runner. We'll go through the step-by-step process of configuring a platform that allows running automated tests, both unit and acceptance tests, for Arduino and STM32 projects, providing almost instant feedback on code implementation. Perfect for educational environments or small development teams.
A look at how well-designed libraries can make platform switching easier. Separating logic from specific dependencies helps keep code clean, reusable, and ready for the challenges of cross-platform development.
