downloadnewsdocgithubextensionsforumcontact AtomVM Welcome to AtomVM, the Erlang virtual machine for IoT devices! AtomVM is a lightweight implementation of the the Bogdan Erlang Abstract Machine (aka, the BEAM), a virtual machine that can execute byte-code instructions compiled from Erlang or Elixir source code. AtomVM supports a limited but functional subset of the BEAM opcodes, and also includes a small subset of the Erlang/OTP standard libraries, all optimized to run on tiny micro-controllers. With AtomVM, you can write your IoT applications in a functional programming language, using a modern actor-based concurrency model, making them vastly easier to write and understand! AtomVM includes many advanced features, including process spawning, monitoring, message passing, pre-emptive scheduling, and efficient garbage collection.
