Whether you are working with Linux, Windows or other RTOS, develop custom OS runtime image for a targeted hardware platform, without help from efficient development tool, is a daunting, tedious and time consuming task. To help simplify the complexity in developing custom Compact 2013 OS runtime image, Microsoft provides the Platform Builder suite of tools, a set of free plug-in for the Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 IDE, available for download from Microsoft website. In part-2 of this Compact 2013 getting started series, we will work through the steps, using the Platform Builder plug-in for Visual Studio 2013, to develop an OS design project and generate an OS runtime image for a target device.
