Field notes
Objective-Z processes an Objective-C thermostat example into C while preserving direct access to Zephyr constructs such as k_timer and zbus. The demonstration includes protocols, ARC-style object use, properties, blocks, and a C callback that updates the thermostat setpoint. The page reports 12 cycles per call, zero bytes of heap, and firmware 28% smaller than C++ as stated results, while labeling the displayed v0.5.99 release pre-1.0.
