The Age of Personalized Hardware Is Coming
Summary
A perspective piece arguing that personalized hardware devices will proliferate and require software written in web-like ways, then compiled to native across MCU to macOS. It highlights the need for cross-target tooling (e.g., TypeScript to C++ compilers) to avoid deep embedded toolchains, while acknowledging ongoing hardware manufacturing and certification challenges. The article emphasizes shifting the software boundary closer to the device and enabling end users and small developers to build interfaces for personal hardware.
