beacond Project Landing Page is Live!

We're excited to share that the beacond project now has its own landing page! 🎉

After weeks of intense development on the daemon itself—building the priority resolution engine, implementing the DBus API, and wrangling async Rust—we finally took a moment to give the project a proper home on the web.

Built with Zola

For the landing page, we chose Zola, a blazingly fast static site generator written in Rust. It felt fitting: a Rust project deserves a Rust-powered website, right? Using the excellent project-portfolio theme, we were able to create a clean, professional presentation in no time.

What's beacond?

If you haven't checked it out yet, beacond is a system daemon that brings order to the chaos of multiple applications competing for control of LEDs, buzzers, and displays on embedded Linux devices. Think of it as a diplomatic referee that ensures your hardware signals play nicely together, with priority-based resolution and synchronized patterns.

The core implementation is complete, and we're currently in the testing phase before production deployment. All built with Rust, tokio, and zbus for that sweet, sweet type safety and performance.

Check It Out

Head over to the beacond project page to learn more about what it does and why your embedded system might need it. The full documentation and source code are available in the repository.

More updates coming soon as we move toward the first production release! 🚀
