|
|
WiringPi is a _performant_ GPIO access library written in C for Raspberry Pi boards. |
|
|
|
**Key Features:** |
|
|
|
- **Support:** WiringPi supports all Raspberry Pi Boards including Pi 5 ( :construction: On the Pi 5, only the GCLK functionality is currently not supported due to missing documentation of the RP1 chip). |
|
|
|
- **High Performance:** By directly accessing the hardware registers, WiringPi ensures minimal latency and maximum performance for your GPIO operations. |
|
|
|
- **Wide Adoption:** WiringPi is widely used in numerous projects, making it a reliable choice for your Raspberry Pi GPIO needs. |

:warning:️ :construction: on Pi5, PWM support is currently under development and _will not work at this point_. If you're interested in the progress, please check the [corresponding issue](https://github.com/GrazerComputerClub/WiringPi/issues/21). |
