Chapter 26: Embedded Systems & Edge Sync

Embedded systems synchronize across radios, gateways, clouds, and constrained flash, so local availability and deterministic resource use matter as much as eventual convergence. This chapter connects microcontroller architecture and Bluetooth Low Energy transport to local-first state, operation logs, and conflict-free merge semantics.
