Blackfor(r)est Embedded is Philipps plattform for the occasional shout-out to the world of software development. He writes about software engineering topics that have caught his interest, as well as about bridging the gap between technical and non-technical people.

Philipp writes in English to reach a broader audience. However, since he is not a native speaker, mistakes are bound to slip through – sorry for that.
