SYZYGY Tools Released

View previous update
View next update

We have launched a new repository, syzygy-tools on GitHub. This repository contains a set of tools for SYZYGY carrier and peripheral developers. These include a library that can be used to parse and solve SmartVIO solutions from DNA data along with an application to create DNA binaries from JSON data.

For users of the syzygy.c and syzygy.h files previously included in the brain-tools repository, note that there has been an update to syzygy.c that fixes an issue with doublewide peripherals. A diff of this change can be found in this commit to brain-tools.
