Welcome to the new official blog for Das U-Boot! For over two decades, the U-Boot mailing list has been the vibrant hub of our development discussions. While the mailing list remains our primary channel for patches and technical conversations, this blog will serve as a new platform to share deeper insights, project news, and community stories in a more accessible format.
As of mid-2025, U-Boot is more critical to the embedded ecosystem than ever. Our development is thriving, with robust support spanning a vast array of architectures from ARM and x86 to the rapidly expanding world of RISC-V. U-Boot provides a flexible, powerful foundation for countless products in the industrial, automotive and consumer-electronics spaces, incorporating modern standards like FIT, EFI and Firmware Handoff to meet today’s demanding security and interoperability requirements.
This blog is a community platform, and we need your voice to make it a success. We invite developers, maintainers, and users to contribute posts. Have you recently ported U-Boot to a novel board? Do you have a technical deep-dive on a specific subsystem you’d like to share? Or perhaps a case study on how U-Boot solved a unique challenge in your project?
If you have an idea for a post, please email the admin to get a login for this site. We’re excited to build this resource with you.
Happy hacking!
