This repository consolidates individual board codebases into a single, unified structure. Each board retains its distinct directory, preserving the concept of individual board repositories while benefiting from a centralized codebase.
- DIM: Driver Interface Module
- HVC: High Voltage Controller
- PTC: Powertrain Controller
- RAM: Random Access Module
- CMake
- STM32CubeCLT
If you are part of CMR this is a comprehensive guide for setup.
Previously, each board maintained its own detached version of the stm32f413-drivers repository. This fragmentation led to:
- Slightly different versions of hotfixes across boards.
- Debugging nightmare when using PCAN, where symbol files could differ between boards.
- New members not understanding how to use submodules
By transitioning to a monorepo, we eliminate this fragmentation, ensuring a single source of truth for all driver code.
With individual repositories, flashing the entire car was complex and error-prone. The monorepo provides:
- A unified process for flashing all boards.
- Consistency in the version of code deployed across the car.
Adopting a monorepo mirrors the practices of many modern engineering teams, enhancing collaboration, maintainability, and scalability.
With monorepo we can implement Github Actions, which allow simple build tests and checks to have a weak guarantee that code will work.
