aily blockly 中文 | English About This Software Aily Project is a hardware development integrated environment that plans to integrate numerous AI capabilities to help hardware developers develop more smoothly. Aily Blockly is a blockly IDE under the aily Project. In the early stage, it provides AI-assisted programming capabilities for non-professional users. The long-term goal is to break the boundary between professional development and non-professional development, and ultimately achieve natural language programming. > We aim to design and develop this project as industrial-grade software, but the project is currently in the alpha stage and is not recommended for mass production device firmware development. However, the current version is perfectly suitable for prototype verification and educational teaching. Current Version Highlights • **Engineering Project Management** Uses npm for project management, achieving board and library management on a per-project basis. This solves many engineering deficiencies in traditional embedded development environments. For example, using Arduino IDE may result in board package, library, and current project mismatches, causing compilation failures and runtime errors. In this software, the board versions and library versions in each project are independent and do not affect each other. • **Library Manager** Although we have prepared many libraries (covering almost all commonly used modules), these libraries are actually generated by AI and we have not verified them in detail. We need beta testers to verify and improve them together with us. • **Powerful and Compact Serial Debug Tool** Attempts to create an all-purpose serial tool. Welcome everyone to test, provide feedback, and propose new ideas. • **AI Project Generation** According to user requirements, automatically analyzes projects, recommends development boards, modules, and libraries, generates project architecture diagrams and pin connection diagrams, and creates projects for users. • **AI Code Generation** According to user requirements, automatically writes programs. • **AI Library Conversion** Native C/C++ libraries can be easily converted to libraries used by this software. Based on large model configuration generation, during development, if you want to use an Arduino library but don't have the corresponding blockly library, just provide the Arduino library to AI, and AI will automatically analyze and generate the corresponding blockly library. With this feature, this software can become the blockly platform with the most libraries. • **AI Development Board Configuration Generation (Under improvement)** Based on large model configuration generation, when adding development boards, you no longer need to write new configurations purely by hand. Just provide the development board documentation (md format), and AI will automatically analyze and help you generate development board configuration files. (Only supports development boards with esp32, avr, renesas, rp2040, stm32 as the core, because compilers and core SDKs still need to be prepared by us in advance to the repository) • **Lightning Compilation Tool** (Phase 1 online, Phase 2 coming soon!) Edge-cloud collaboration, lightning compilation. Reduces the original 1-hour compilation work to 1 minute! • **Pin Diagram** Provides a beautiful development board pin diagram viewing solution. • **Wiring Diagram (Simulator Phase 1)** AI can generate module wiring diagrams based on user programs and requirements for user reference. Unofficial Version Notes This alpha version for testing only guarantees the minimum usability, and many planned highlight features have not yet been designed and developed. The current version is not recommended for actual work use, as many adjustments we make later may cause incompatibility between versions.
