16 * LUFA is an open-source USB library for the USB-enabled AVR microcontrollers, released under the MIT license. It supports
17 * a large number of USB AVR models and boards (see \ref Page_DeviceSupport). It is designed to provide an easy to use, feature
18 * rich framework for the development of USB peripherals and hosts.
20 * LUFA focuses on the microcontroller side of USB development only; it includes no host USB driver development facilities. While
21 * custom USB devices can be made with LUFA, the included demos all use the inbuilt OS drivers for each USB class for simplicity.
23 * The library is currently in a stable release, suitable for download and incorporation into user projects for
24 * both host and device modes. For information about the project progression, check out my blog.
26 * LUFA is written specifically for the free AVR-GCC compiler, and uses several GCC-only extensions to make the
27 * library API more streamlined and robust. You can download AVR-GCC for free in a convenient windows package,
28 * from the the WinAVR website.
30 * Accompanying LUFA in the download package is a set of example demo applications, plus several Bootloaders (DFU, CDC and HID
31 * class) and open source LUFA powered projects.
