Building a Web File Manager on Microcontrollers | HackerNoon

Embedded web file managers simplify access to a device's internal storage, enhancing usability for engineers and operators.

Building a low-cost Meshtastic node is achievable for around $11 using specific components.

Embedded systems demand a balance between software complexity and memory restrictions, pushing for languages like C++ for binary size optimization.

C++ features like templates and smart pointers can affect binary size; developers must navigate their impacts carefully.

Tools like Bloaty are essential for understanding contributions to firmware bloat, aiding developers in design decisions.

Binary optimization should be part of the entire development lifecycle, emphasizing size awareness within CI pipelines.

Raspberry Pi has cut prices for its Compute Module 4 variants, adjusting to DRAM pricing trends to enhance cost-effectiveness for embedded projects.
