# Preface
This book contains user level documentation for the Real-Time Interrupt-driven Concurrency
(RTIC) framework. The API reference is available [here](../../api/).
Formerly known as Real-Time For the Masses.
<!--There is a translation of this book in [Russian].-->
<!--[Russian]: ../ru/index.html-->
This is the documentation of v1.0.x of RTIC; for the documentation of version
* v0.5.x go [here](/0.5).
* v0.4.x go [here](/0.4).
## Is RTIC an RTOS?
A common question is whether RTIC is an RTOS or not, and depending on your background the
answer may vary. From RTIC's developers point of view; RTIC is a hardware accelerated
RTOS that utilizes the NVIC in Cortex-M MCUs to perform scheduling, rather than the more
classical software kernel.
Another common view from the community is that RTIC is a concurrency framework as there
is no software kernel and that it relies on external HALs.
