Creator aims to make development on MIPS platforms as simple and accessible as possible. We offer hardware and software to get started, as well as examples/applications that you can use as a base to build from, or as a demonstrator of what's possible on MIPS based hardware platforms. All the software and examples are open source and available on Github.

Multiple device systems and cloud connectivity are becoming increasingly important in embedded systems. Creator provides the means to securely provision devices online to allow safe communication of your data. We also provide open source SDKs and examples of LWM2M to allow inter-device communication on local networks, and over the Internet.

Various terminologies used in CreatorKit project are explained at Glossary.

CreatorKit projects provide applications which run on Ci40 MIPS board having OpenWrt Linux distribution and also make use of MikroE boards for wide variety of uses.

CreatorKit projects are spread across a couple of organizations :-

• CreatorDev: This includes
  • Contiki: Operating system that runs on MikroE boards.
  • OpenWrt: Linux distribution that runs on Ci40.
  • Openwrt Feeds: Collection on third-party packages required by Openwrt.
• CreatorKit: This includes
  • Build: Describes steps for building CreatorKit project.
  • Manifest: Manifest for creating directory structure for CreatorKit project.
  • OpenWrt CreatorKit Feeds: Collection of CreatorKit specific packages for OpenWrt.
  • Webscripts: Package which provides web interface for provisioning CreatorKit devices. It includes webpages as well as webservices.
  • Libobjects: Collection of lwm2m and custom ipso objects for Clicker apps.
  • Button-Led Controller: CreatorKit Project 1 application for Creator Ci40 platform.
  • Button Sensor: MikroE 6loWPAN Clicker based lwm2m client button sensor application.
  • Device Manager: Application for provisioning the gateway device and constrained devices.
  • Motion-Led Controller: CreatorKit Project 2 application for Creator Ci40 platform.
  • Motion Sensor: MikroE 6loWPAN Clicker based lwm2m client motion sensor application.
  • Creator Docs: Entry level documentation for CreatorKit project.

CreatorKit as of now has following projects :-

• Project 1
• Project 2
