Elixir ❤️ Embedded

Nerves is an open-source platform that combines the rock-solid BEAM virtual machine and Elixir ecosystem to easily build and deploy production embedded systems.

Get started Features

  • Try it out

    Use a prebuilt firmware image loaded with Livebook so you can start playing on real hardware immediately. No build required. You'll be able to run through guided Nerves tutorials from the comfort of your browser.

  • Build an example

    Nerves maintains several common application examples. Setup your development environment and use one of these as a starting point for your specific situation.

  • Full DIY

    Installation instructions to setup your development environment and make your own firmware from scratch.

Hardware doesn't have to be hard. Nerves makes edge computing easier by solving the most complex infrastructure problems. Let Nerves take care of the network, discovery, I/O, firmware updates, and more. Focus your team on what matters — writing robust and maintainable software.
