Azure RTOS GUIX is a professional-quality package, created to meet the needs of embedded systems developers. Unlike alternative GUI solutions Azure RTOS GUIX is small, fast, and easily ported to virtually any hardware configuration that’s capable of supporting graphical output. Azure RTOS GUIX also delivers exceptional visual appeal and an intuitive and powerful API for application-level user interface development.

Azure RTOS GUIX Studio provides a complete, embedded graphical user interface (GUI) application design environment, facilitating the creation and maintenance of all graphical elements in the application’s GUI. Azure RTOS GUIX Studio automatically generates C code that’s compatible with the Azure RTOS GUIX library, ready to be compiled and run on the target.

The Azure RTOS GUIX Studio installer is available here: https://aka.ms/azrtos-guix-installer.

Documentation for this library can be found here: https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/rtos/guix

The main components of Azure RTOS are each provided in their own repository, but there are dependencies between them--shown in the following graph--that are important to understand when setting up your builds.

Install the following tools:

• CMake version 3.0 or later
• GCC compilers for arm-none-eabi
• Ninja

$ git clone https://github.com/azure-rtos/guix.git

Each component of Azure RTOS comes with a composible CMake-based build system that supports many different MCUs and host systems. Integrating any of these components into your device app code is as simple as adding a git submodule and then including it in your build using the CMake command add_subdirectory().

While the typical usage pattern is to include threadx into your device code source tree to be built & linked with your code, you can compile this project as a standalone static library to confirm your build is set up correctly.

$ cmake -Bbuild -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=cmake/cortex_m4.cmake -GNinja .

$ cmake --build ./build

NOTE: You will have to take the dependency graph above into account when building anything other than threadx itself.

The master branch has the most recent code with all new features and bug fixes. It does not represent the latest General Availability (GA) release of the library.

Each official release (preview or GA) will be tagged to mark the commit and push it into the Github releases tab, e.g. v6.0-rel.

Azure RTOS provides OEMs with components to secure communication and to create code and data isolation using underlying MCU/MPU hardware protection mechanisms. It is ultimately the responsibility of the device builder to ensure the device fully meets the evolving security requirements associated with its specific use case.
