Welcome to AtomVM Daily, covering June 29th through July 6th, 2026.
This week: twelve pull request activity items, zero additional commits. The pattern is clear - this was a standard library and compatibility week, backed by a handful of meaningful reliability fixes underneath.
Let's start with the standard library push. Pguyot was the driving force here, landing filename functions and init argument support in PR 2347, three previously missing erlang functions - including term to binary and bitstring to list - in PR 2354, a right-to-left list fold in PR 2350, and both rest-for-one and…
Second theme: networking and I/O reliability. Harmon25 delivered two connected pieces of work: a migration of the ESP32 I2C stack onto the new I2C master driver in PR 2349, needed ahead of the old driver's end-of-life in a future IDF release, and a socket send fix in PR 2345 that distinguishes a transient…
Third theme: memory and platform groundwork. Petermm's PR 2356 addresses global context destroy leaks surfaced during Zephyr test harness work - particularly relevant for low-memory boards and wifi test scenarios on ESP32. It's a partial fix; the author notes a remaining leak in atom table string…
