Apache Newt is the build and package management system for the Apache Mynewt project. More information on Newt can be found here

Apache Mynewt continues to stabilize with each release, and we believe this release is a further step forward. People who are interested in playing around, and trying Newt, are encouraged to download and begin evaluating it.

Future versions will add:

  • More robust package management and versioning
  • Newt package type “transient”
  • Support for specifying C++ compiler flags
  • Improvements for info, size, sync and upgrade commands
  • Support for encrypted images
  • Support for multiple concurrent debug sessions with two boards
