Pebble’s Code is Free: Three Former Pebble Engineers Discuss Why It's Important - Part 1

For years, Pebble has been frozen in time— until now.

Google just open-sourced Pebble’s firmware, unlocking one of the most beloved embedded platforms ever built. For the first time, developers can dig into the source code of a production-level consumer device that ran for billions of hours in the wild.

Pebble’s OS was years ahead of its time: a custom file system, an ultra-efficient power management system, and a graphics stack built from scratch. Now, the embedded community has a rare opportunity to learn from it.

For former Pebble engineers François Baldassari, Chris Coleman, and Brad Murray, this moment is both exciting and deeply nostalgic. Pebble wasn’t just a smartwatch; it was a defining project for a generation of embedded engineers. In this webinar, they’ll revisit the groundbreaking work that went into Pebble OS, share behind-the-scenes stories, and discuss what the embedded world might do with the code next. 

The conversation will cover:

• The technical innovations that made Pebble OS stand out
• What open-sourcing a major consumer device firmware means for the industry
• How developers can learn from and build on Pebble’s code
• And more…

If you can’t make it live, we’ll send you the recording.
