The most engaging part was definitely the practical section - specifically, the opportunity to actually program and flash firmware onto a physical device. From the lectures, I enjoyed the section on thread creation and synchronization mechanisms (tasks, timers, queues, etc.) the most; these were crucial topics and were presented very well.

What I liked the most is to have covered the whole structure of FREERTOS and to know how to use the different tools provided by this type of programming for my own projects.

I really liked that Grzegorz was a real professional, a person who knew what he was talking about. You could feel that he has had mastered his subject and was willing to hand this knowledge over to you. The knowledge discussed during theoretical part was really important and presented in understandable way.
