Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project represents a legitimate, functional open-source C++ framework (AREG SDK) for embedded/IoT systems, verified via GitHub with ~237 stars and active maintenance. However, the submission is significantly marred by hyperbolic and inaccurate claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone'). While the technology is sound and innovative (Interface-centric ORPC), the discrepancy between the claimed traction and reality, along with the poor quality of the response, heavily penalizes the score. It falls into the 'Small but promising' category due to the verifiable code quality despite the submission's red flags.

Description
Here at Aregtech we develop technologies to inspire the discovery of endless possibilities of connected things. Everyone should be able to develop autonomous, intelligent, and fun to work software for embedded, IoT edge and digital twin applications. As a meaningful solution, we offer free and open source AREG SDK , which is an interface-centric real-time communications engine to simplify distributed programming for embedded applications and enable mist-computing at the edge of the network where connected things interact and provide network accessible services, as if they act like thin distributed servers and clients.
