Comparison of micro-ROS features with ROS 2 features. The following list has been compiled from [https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Features/](https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Features/) and [https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Roadmap/](https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Roadmap/), and the features have been organized into sub-tables according to the macrocategories defined in the [Features and Architecture page](http://localhost:4000/docs/overview/features/).

The [rclc](https://github.com/micro-ROS/rclc) package provides convenience functions and an executor for use of rcl+rclc as client library for the C programming language. *Roadmap: migrate all functionalities to the rclc, so as to make it an independent abraction layer on top of the rcl that serves as user's API.*

Build system | <span class="status_flag">&#10003;</span> | micro-ROS provides two ways of building a micro-ROS application. The first uses the [micro_ros_setup](https://github.com/micro-ROS/micro_ros_setup) tool integrated in a ROS 2 workspace. With this approach, the build systems of NuttX, FreeRTOS, and Zephyr are integrated with colcon. The other provides micro-ROS as a component of external development frameworks (e.g., ESP-IDF and Zephyr build system).

Supported hardware | <span class="status_flag">&#10003;</span> | micro-ROS officially supports four boards. For the moments, all official ports are based on the STM32 series from ST and on the ESP32 from Espressif. Find more info [here](https://micro-ros.github.io/docs/overview/hardware/). More ports have been carried out by users, check the [complete list](https://github.com/micro-ROS/micro_ros_setup#supported-platforms).

Support for "bare-metal" microcontrollers | <span class="status_flag">&#10003;</span> | Bringing ROS 2 onto MCUs is all that micro-ROS is about. The standard approach to micro-ROS assumes an RTOS underneath (e.g., [FreeRTOS](https://www.freertos.org/), [Zephyr](https://www.zephyrproject.org/), or [NuttX](http://nuttx.apache.org/)). Recent developments aim at loosening this requirement, with the integration into [Arduino IDE](https://github.com/micro-ROS/micro_ros_arduino) being a first step towards true micro-ROS bare-metal support.

Continuous Integration | <span class="status_flag">&#10003;&#8728;</span> | Currently, the CI for micro-ROS is distributed to GitHub and GitLab. *Until the end of 2020, all CI should be moved migrated completely to the new CI actions of GitHub.* Please note that those packages that are released for standard ROS 2 are also built and tested on [build.ros2.org](http://build.ros2.org/).

Documentation | <span class="status_flag">&#10003;</span> | High-level documentation at [micro-ros.github.io](https://micro-ros.github.io/). For detailed information please consult the README.md files in the relevant micro-ROS repositories at [github.com/micro-ROS/](https://github.com/micro-ROS/). For information on the middleware implementation, take a look at the [Micro XRCE-DDS documentation](https://micro-xrce-dds.docs.eprosima.com/en/latest/).
