Mbed OS 5.7 released: Focus on robustness, connectivity and ease of use

The Arm Mbed OS 5.7.0 release helps to further simplify the Internet of Things (IoT) and embedded product development with the addition of several new features, such as the high-integrity embedded file system, which provides power loss resilient operation and maximizes the life of the external memory block device by implementing wear leveling techniques. The release also includes an open-source mesh networking stack, which is IPv6, 6LoWPAN and one of the only two open-source certified Thread networking stacks. This release also continues our efforts to add comprehensive documentation for Mbed OS. Our ongoing efforts in this area include adding documentation about contributing and using our platform, drivers, RTOS, connectivity and storage APIs, as well as information about our tools. This release also includes improvements to the user experience of our documentation.

In addition, this release contains many minor fixes and enhancements and brings support for 103 target development boards. In the release note below, we summarize some of the key updates to Mbed OS that are part of the Mbed OS 5.7.0 release.”
