I’m starting a new embedded project and I’m unsure whether to use a bare-metal approach or an RTOS-based approach. What are the advantages and considerations of each approach? How do I determine which approach is most suitable for my project?

The choice between a bare-metal and RTOS-based embedded system depends on factors such as real-time requirements, project complexity, performance needs, development constraints, and available ecosystem and support.
Bare-metal systems offer simplicity, direct hardware control, and potential for better performance.
RTOS-based systems provide abstractions, task management, and easier code reuse. Consider these factors to make an informed decision.
The selection between bare metal and RTOS would be depends on like how your project and product requirements including hardware selection and others as well. Also, bare metal is little bit harder compared to RTOS Programming but into both case you need to understand technologies into depth. But as far as i know that into bare metal programming you will learn a lot as it contains register level programming.
