# Embedr Docs

> Embedr is an AI-native IDE and automation stack for embedded systems, combining firmware projects, board targets, devices, datasheets, agent workflows, and PCB automation.

This file follows the llms.txt convention: a concise Markdown index for agents and language models. The links below point to canonical public documentation pages for Embedr.

## Foundations

- [Start Here](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/start-here): The mental model for Embedr as one stack for firmware, boards, devices, data, and agentic work.
- [Install and Account](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/install-and-account): Install the app, sign in, and understand what lives locally.
- [Project Anatomy](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/project-anatomy): Understand embedr.yaml, platformio.ini, source files, datasheets, and the PCB workspace.
- [Targets and Environments](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/targets-and-environments): How boards, build environments, frameworks, and connected devices fit together.

## Firmware Workbench

- [Editor and Files](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/editor-and-files): Use the editor, tabs, file tree, previews, and project operations without losing context.
- [Build, Upload, Serial](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/build-upload-serial): Compile firmware, flash a board, and read serial output with the right mental model.
- [Dependencies and Libraries](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/dependencies-and-libraries): Install libraries, understand dependency resolution, and keep builds reproducible.
- [Terminal and Setup](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/terminal-and-diagnostics): Use the embedded terminal, setup checks, device discovery, and runtime health signals.

## Agentic Workflow

- [Embedr Agent](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/embedr-agent): How the autonomous agent understands projects, uses tools, and works across firmware and hardware.
- [Search and Indexing](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/search-and-indexing): Use text search, semantic search, and indexing for larger firmware projects.
- [Datasheets](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/datasheets): Turn component PDFs into project knowledge the agent can use while writing firmware.
- [Version Control](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/version-control): Track project history with Git, checkpoints, branches, diffs, and restores.

## Hardware As Code

- [Schematics and PCB](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/schematics-and-pcb): Use the PCB workspace to describe schematic and board intent alongside firmware.
- [PCB Automation](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/pcb-automation): Auto placement, auto routing, layout sync, placement comments, and review discipline.
- [Component Library](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/component-library): Use component records, assets, datasheets, footprints, and project-level connections.
- [Board and KiCad](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/board-and-kicad): Move from schematic preview to board layout, automation output, 3D preview, and KiCad handoff.
- [Project Manifest](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/project-manifest): Read and maintain the embedr.yaml contract that ties firmware and hardware together.

## Reference

- [CLI Reference](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/cli-reference): Every supported embedr command and how it maps to the desktop app.
- [Settings and Privacy](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/settings-and-privacy): Understand account settings, local preferences, diagnostic data, and privacy boundaries.
- [Troubleshooting](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/troubleshooting): Debug install, build, upload, serial, indexing, datasheet, and PCB problems.
- [Glossary](https://www.embedr.app/docs/app/glossary): Plain-English definitions for embedded, firmware, PlatformIO, agent, and PCB terms.

## Optional

- [Documentation home](https://www.embedr.app/docs): Visual documentation index and search experience.
- [CLI documentation landing page](https://www.embedr.app/docs/cli): Human-readable overview for the Embedr CLI reference.
- [Download Embedr](https://www.embedr.app/download): Desktop app downloads and platform-specific install entry points.
- [Pricing](https://www.embedr.app/pricing): Plan and usage information.
- [Contact](https://www.embedr.app/contact): Support and team contact page.
