Hello and welcome to AtomVM Daily for the week of October 19th through October 26th, 2026.
This week: 5 pull request activity items, 0 additional commits this week.
The lead pattern is alignment between code, documentation, and real hardware behavior, plus a cleanup of setup and test overhead.
First, more predictable behavior on embedded targets.
Three proposals address edge cases developers hit on device. PR 2436 tackles stack traces on E S P devices. When no stack frame carries line information, the builder was still attempting a zero-size allocation for module paths. On E S P I D F, that allocation returns null, forcing a fallback to a raw stack trace and…
For S P I on E S P 32, PR 2438 aligns the type specifications with the driver, allowing minus one alongside non-negative numbers for unused pins in bus and device configuration. That resolves issue 2435. Practically, you can now mark pins as unused in configuration without tripping type checks, and the A P I docs…
