# WiringPi
# WiringPi Library
Welcome to the WiringPi Library, the highly performant GPIO access library for Raspberry Pi boards. This library is written in C and is designed to provide fast and efficient control of the GPIO pins by directly accessing the hardware registers using DMA.
Key Features:
- **Support:** WiringPi supports all Raspberry Pi Boards including Pi 5 ( :construction: On the Pi 5, only the GCLK functionality is currently not supported due to missing documentation of the RP1 chip.).
- **High Performance:** By directly accessing the hardware registers, WiringPi ensures minimal latency and maximum performance for your GPIO operations.
- **Wide Adoption:** WiringPi is widely used in numerous projects, making it a reliable choice for your Raspberry Pi GPIO needs.
WiringPi is a _performant_ GPIO access library written in C for Raspberry Pi boards.
Whether you’re working on a simple LED blink project or a complex automation system, WiringPi provides the tools you need to get the job done efficiently.
:warning:️ :construction: on Pi5, PWM support is currently under development and _will not work at this point_. If you're interested in the progress, please check the [corresponding issue](https://github.com/GrazerComputerClub/WiringPi/issues/21).
## How to use:
To compile programs with wiringPi, you need to include `wiringPi.h` as well as link against `wiringPi`:
