Very often I'll find myself with a device like a Particle Photon, Wilderness Labs Meadow, or some STM32 device that uses the ST Bootloader. The term "dfu" means Device Firmware Update and dfu-util is the Device Firmware Update Utility, natch.

It can do most anything I want, run a half-dozen Linuxes, and has a shiny new open source Terminal, and has great support for Docker now.įor years - YEARS I SAY - Windows has been a huge hassle when you want to flash the firmware of various devices over USB.

I'm pretty happy with Windows 10 as my primary development box.
