In your Direct Hardware Control chapter, please include a bit on targeting embedded systems like ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers. For instance, how to get started and problems/gotchas to watch out for. I'm going to try this out myself over the next few months so let me know if you need me to try something out or for a chapter review.

Will do!

Please do try it out and report the results on the Nim forums (or via blog post). This is one of the chapters where I will need to do some research first, as I don't have much experience with this kind of stuff. So any ideas for this chapter are very much appreciated!

I thought it would be a nice chapter to end the book with though. Plus I am excited to play with this sort of stuff.

My current plan for this chapter is to try replicating some of the projects in the Arduino starter kit and to see where I can go from there.
