Storyboard is an embedded GUI development framework designed to streamline the creation of sophisticated, high-performance user interfaces for devices ranging from microcontrollers (MCUs to microprocessors (MPUs. By facilitating seamless collaboration between designers and developers, Storyboard enables the rapid development of intuitive and visually appealing interfaces without compromising performance. Key Features and Functionality: - Design Importation: Directly import graphics from popular design tools like Figma, Photoshop, and Sketch, preserving layers and names to maintain design integrity. - Animation Creation: Easily add dynamic animations using built-in tools such as the Animation Timeline and Animation Record features. - Iterative Development: Manage design iterations efficiently with the Compare & Merge tool, allowing for parallel workflows without disrupting existing code. - Testing and Validation: Utilize the Storyboard Simulator and Validator to test and validate UI functionality, ensuring optimal performance across various hardware platforms. - Hardware Flexibility: Deploy applications across a wide range of hardware and operating systems, thanks to Storyboard's hardware-agnostic architecture. Primary Value and Problem Solving: Storyboard addresses the challenges of embedded GUI development by offering a design-centric approach that bridges the gap between designers and developers. Its intuitive interface and powerful tools reduce development time, lower costs, and enhance the overall user experience. By enabling rapid prototyping, seamless design iterations, and efficient deployment across diverse hardware platforms, Storyboard empowers teams to deliver exceptional user interfaces that meet modern consumer expectations.

Super support // Great portability // Multiple target platforms supported

The support team is awesome. Whenever I have an issue, I contact support and with the very little information they get from me, they respond always very fast with information on how to fix it or even with a new engine. Our product uses a low range processor without an operating system, and the portability is definitely the biggest feature of Crank. Our GUI designers can focus on the design only in the simulator, while the hardware engineers can focus on the embedded side.
