|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Velxio started as a personal exploration into how microcontroller emulators work internally — CPU instructions,
|
||||
memory management, peripheral timing, and low-level architecture. What began as a learning project during
|
||||
a vacation quickly grew into something bigger.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The idea was simple: <strong>what if anyone could simulate Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi boards
|
||||
directly in the browser, without buying hardware, without installing toolchains, without cloud accounts?</strong>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Velxio v1 launched on Product Hunt and Hacker News, supporting Arduino Uno and Raspberry Pi Pico.
|
||||
The feedback from the maker and embedded community was incredible — and it pushed the project forward.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<strong>Velxio 2.0</strong> shipped with ESP32 emulation via QEMU (using the lcgamboa fork), a Raspberry Pi 3
|
||||
running real Linux, RISC-V support for ESP32-C3 and CH32V003, realistic sensor simulation (DHT22, HC-SR04,
|
||||
WS2812B NeoPixel), and 19 boards across 5 CPU architectures — all running real compiled code.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The v2 launch hit the <strong>front page of Hacker News for over 20 hours</strong>, reaching nearly 600 GitHub
|
||||
stars and thousands of visitors in less than 24 hours. It's now being used by students, professors, and makers
|
||||
around the world.

Velxio is <strong>100% open source</strong> under the AGPLv3 license. No cloud dependency, no student accounts,
|

no data leaving your network. Universities and bootcamps can deploy it on their own servers with a single Docker
|

command and give every student access to a complete embedded development environment — for free.
|

The project builds on top of amazing open-source work from the community:
