Participating in the Ell-i Hackathon sets some requirements to teams. We realise this bar is a bit high at the moment especially regarding the programmer skillset. Our aim is that Ell-i can be programmed connected via Ethernet using the Arduino IDE but for now it is done using an USB FTDI programmer and command line tools.

Materials

a computer with a USB port and a Ethernet port
- GNU Make
- GCC version xyz
any components you need that are not listed in Hackathon supplied hardware

Skills

basic command line knowledge
basic make knowledge
low level C programming knowledge
Ethernet and IP programming knowledge
basic or at least elementary electronics knowledge
