TMS LCL HW Pack for Raspberry Pi is an open‑source bundle of components that provides seamless access to various Raspberry Pi hardware breakouts. It enables developers to interact with external hardware directly from Pascal applications running on the Raspberry Pi, without the need for deep knowledge of IC documentation or low‑level protocols. Using this pack, accessing electronics becomes as simple as dropping a component on a form and configuring a few properties or calling simple methods. The pack removes the complexity traditionally associated with hardware communication and lets developers focus on application logic rather than low‑level electronics. It opens the door to integrating sensors, actuators, and other breakout modules effortlessly in your LCL (Lazarus Component Library) applications deployed on Raspberry Pi devices.
