Java on Banana Pi: I tested the ARM BPI-M4 Zero and RISC-V BPI-F3 for my 2026 single-board-computer series.
The M4 Zero beats the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 on every benchmark, up to 47% faster, and it's the cheapest board in the whole comparison. I also got @pi4j blinking an RGB LED on it, my first working GPIO example on a non-Raspberry Pi board!

I built a tool to compare #Java performance across ARM, x86, and RISC-V single-board computers! It uses the Renaissance Suite wrapped in a @jbangdev script. The results are now live on my blog with an interactive dashboard. Winners from this batch: #LattePanda #IOTA, #OrangePi 5 Ultra, and #RaspberryPi 5.

RE: https://foojay.social/@pi4j/116102881156060516
This is a big milestone! A lot of changes in V4 of @pi4j but the most important one is the move to #Java 25 and the new plugin using the Foreign Function and Memory (FFM) API. I have been talking about this at several conferences in the last 6 months, but it's finally here. A massive work done by the Pi4J core team to not only add the new plugin, but to improve the internal code, add a hardware smoke test, and much more! #JavaOnSingleBoardComputers just took a major step forward...!!!

Next stop in my "2026 Java on Single Board Computers Journey": #BeagleBoards! I received four boards (2x #Arm, 2x #RISCV) and did a quick first unboxing and test. I had some wins and misses, but it's clear that BeagleBoard has a strong user focus with their Imaging Utility and documentation! Great work!
I share my first experiences in this video on YouTube:

Ever since I started my #JavaOnRaspberryPi journey in 2019 for my book "Getting Started with Java on the Raspberry Pi", I've been fascinated with these tiny, inexpensive computers.
For 2026, I've set one of my goals to experiment with different types of Single-Board Computers (SBC). These boards are available with different processors based on x86, ARM, and RISC-V.
In this blog, I compare these processors:

Today I'm introducing a new hashtag: #JavaOnSingleBoardComputers :-)
Thanks to DFRobot, I took my first step toward testing other single-board computers with #Java, #JavaFX, and @pi4j. The #LattePanda #IOTA looks like a great board and calls for more experiments after a quick first test...
