Version 2

I pretty much believe that the version 2 of the VPC is a mature version. Even if it still says “Beta” and even if it comes with just a basic set of features. The code is simplified, modular and clearer, with some new features in regards to the version 1. And this being said, I will stop the development for now. All I’ll do is bug fixing if necessary. I did this project to remain true to my words when I said on the ST Community forums that I’ll make my own visual configurator than use CubeMX anymore and thank God I did it. So it stops here. I don’t do much these days with STM32 micros and I toy with the idea of trying dsPIC33 micros for their DIP28 case and because they are working at 5Vcc. More than great for home automation projects. Anyway, it was a fun journey and I am proud of the result.

What this project represents

Well, probably nothing for  you, but for me VPC is:
 – an open source tool that provides the best alternative to the CubeMX;
 – a tool that does not step on your intellectual property;
 – a tool that do not spies on your project or computer and do not call home;
 – a nice programming exercise in procedural pascal;
 – the only tool that provides a visual configuration for the SPL library;
 – an effort to learn the SPL library along with the development of VPC.

From where you can get it

From it’s repository hosted at Gitlab. Look for the address in the right panel. I’ll update another time the l152 projects already published that were created with version 1 of VPC.

Note

Right now, the existing l152_* projects in the repository are not compatible with the version 2 of VPC.

Thank you for following this project!
