  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.
  19  *
  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.
  22  *
  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, see \ref Page_Resources.
  25  *
  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.
  29  *
  30  *  Accompanying LUFA in the download package is a set of example demo applications, plus several Bootloaders of different classes
  31  *  and open source LUFA powered projects.
