Map serial string commands to function addresses without using the heap
Published: April 21, 2026, 9:05 pm
The SerialCommandCoordinator is a zero-heap, non-blocking serial command dispatcher for Arduino. This makes it ideal for memory-constrained environments like the ATmega328P, ESP32 and SAMD21. Unlike previous versions that relied on dynamic memory, this revamped library uses C++ Templates to allocate command lists and buffers statically at compile-time. Command strings are stored directly in Program Memory (Flash) using the F() macro, ensuring that […]
