Naming and confusion with similar projects #131

Open josephernest opened 4 years ago

josephernest commented 4 years ago

There are at least 3 projects that people name "Attiny core for Arduino IDE" on various websites/forums/blogs (example):

Are some of these projects a fork of another, or are they totally 3 independent projects?

Any idea about how to avoid confusion?

Hi,

I've started with damellis/attiny, as it's nice to start with, but at one moment found out that it does not support PWM (Please correct me if I'm wrong). So I've switched to SpenceKode.

I guess a blog post or wiki page related to one of these projects, listing all three with a feature comparison would be very helpful for the community.
