Hello! As you may note, this site is filled with holes as we add content. This project is designed specifically to support the 6.270 competition over at MIT, but has been open sourced for anyone to use but requires a Happyboard. Unfortunately this is not a commercially-available board and while I would like to extend this project to a wider set of platforms, I don't have any plans to do so in the near future.

For those of you interested in the latest build, please check out our source page. You can also find periodic builds at the downloads page as we release new versions. We're also putting together several wiki pages to augment the API documentation.
