F´ (or F Prime) is a software framework for the rapid development and deployment of embedded systems and spaceflight applications. Originally developed at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, F´ is open-source software that has been successfully deployed for several space applications. It has been used for but is not limited to, CubeSats, SmallSats, instruments, and deployable. Component architecture with well-defined interfaces. To develop applications with F´, the following requirements of the user’s system must be met, Linux or Mac OS X operating system (or Windows Subsystem for Linux on Windows), CMake, Bash or Bash compatible shell, Clang or GCC compiler, Python 3 and PIP. F´ can be quickly installed and ready to use by cloning the GitHub repository, installing Python code (typically in a virtual environment), and building one of our reference applications.
