OS support FAQ
Linux and Windows are fully supported in the official YARP documentation. For Macs, we do our best with community support.
Language support FAQ
YARP is used in many languages: Python, Java, Tcl, Lisp, Ruby, ... via SWIG bindings. The YARP network protocol is also sufficiently simple to use without the YARP library, see the "YARP without YARP" tutorial in the official documentation. Here we collect notes on specific languages by community members.
