FreeEMS Documentation

The intent of this page is to direct you to all available documentation for the project and to act as a repository of documentation and links to it.

General Firmware Documentation

There is a fairly comprehensive, although often out of date, set of documentation available in the ./docs/ directory of the source code tree.

Generated Doxygen Code Documentation

Doxygen source code based documentation can be obtained in a variety of ways. For each release the Doxygen documentation is generated and uploaded for viewing. For the latest I intend to create a git watcher that builds the docs and keeps a snapshot up to date here, but haven't yet. So the best bet, if you need 100% up to date documentation, is to get the latest source and build it yourself.

Latest Snapshot (Check dates in html to see just exactly how latest, possibly not very. Alternatively, if you have the source, run git describe and compare the output with the version displayed in this.)
XGATED 0.1.1 Release (Doxygen 1.6.3)
