PlatformIO vs. Python RPA vs. Raftt vs. Sourcery CodeBench Comparison Chart

Professional collaborative platform for embedded development. PlatformIO is a next-generation, collaborative platform for embedded development that enables customers to save resources and time by vastly reducing the expenses and labor associated with creating and maintaining product software. We believe the embedded systems industry desperately needs reinvention. Not only are the IDEs and tools built with technology from the 1990s, but they involve many complex requirements and platform-dependent configurations that turn away talented developers from becoming embedded engineers. The most loved IDE solution for Microsoft Visual Studio Code. A user-friendly and extensible integrated development environment with a set of professional development instruments, providing modern and powerful features to speed up yet simplify the creation and delivery of embedded products. PlatformIO is written in pure Python and doesn't depend on any additional libraries/tools from an operation system.

Raftt saves you from the frustrations of configuring, maintaining, and sharing development environments on your local machine. Containers were designed to simplify production, not development. So even if you get past the pain-to-deal-with drift and decay in your local env — you still spend hours working out what’s going on. With Raftt’s platform, you can spawn an unlimited number of consistent remote envs to run your code. Without losing the feeling of local development with your existing workflows and IDEs. With Raftt, you can share a URL to your remote dev env with your teammates. So you can collaborate and debug together in real-time. Your product lead can always access the link — even after you’ve switched to work on a different feature. Raftt lets you interactively debug containers inside your IDE by changing the nature of how they work. And now, when your container’s main process dies, the container doesn’t capsize with it.
