+# Supported Platform
+
+## What does "Supported Platform" Mean?
+
+A **platform** refers to a combination of hardware and operating system (OS). A **supported platform** satisfies the following criteria:
+
+✅ Reference project exists and is accessible to the core F Prime team.
+
+📚 Platform library exists and is used as part of a reference application. The platform library provides OSAL implementation, cmake support, drivers, and anything else needed to build and run the Reference project.
+
+🔁 Tested continuously as part of a continuous integration (CI) pipeline (e.g., unit tests, integration tests).
+
+🔧 Actively maintained by the F Prime community or core F Prime team.
+
+📄 Documented build and run instructions are available for users.
+
 ## Supported Platforms
 
-A **supported platform** refers to a combination of hardware and operating system where the software is actively tested through continuous integration (CI). A platform is considered **supported** if all CI tests pass consistently, ensuring compatibility and reliability.  
+| Hardware         | OS | Architecture   | Reference Project |
+| ---------------- | -------------------- | -------------- | ---------------------------------- |
+| BeagleBone Black | VxWorks 7 | ARMv7 | [`fprime-vxworks-reference`](https://github.com/fprime-community/fprime-vxworks-reference) |
+| Raspberry Pi     | Linux     | ARMv8 | [`fprime-workshop-led-blinker`](https://github.com/fprime-community/fprime-workshop-led-blinker) |
+| x86              | Linux     | x86\_64 | [`F Prime Ref`](https://github.com/nasa/fprime) |
+| Apple M*         | Darwin    | ARM  | [`F Prime Ref`](https://github.com/nasa/fprime) |

-| Raspberry Pi | Linux | [`fprime-workshop-led-blinker`](https://github.com/fprime-community/fprime-workshop-led-blinker) | |
+These are platforms that the F Prime community or core team is actively working or planning to support. They may have partial implementations, early-stage deployments, or nothing yet.

+1. Pick a hardware and OS platform that is not in development or is not listed.
+1. Create a platform library. Take a look at [`How-To: Develop an F Prime Library`](https://fprime.jpl.nasa.gov/latest/docs/how-to/develop-fprime-libraries/).
+1. Create a reference project for your platform that uses your platform library. Use [`fprime-vxworks-reference`](https://github.com/fprime-community/fprime-vxworks-reference) or [`fprime-baremetal-reference`](https://github.com/fprime-community/fprime-baremetal-reference) as examples for the file structure.
+1. Include build, run, and hardware setup instructions in a README.md.
+1. Set up CI for your reference project and have CI run the F Prime provided integration test scripts.
+1. Optional: submit a request to add your reference project to fprime-community by [opening a discussion](https://github.com/nasa/fprime/discussions). Provide platform description in your request.
+   
+> [!TIP]
+> 1. Follow the naming and file-structure convention as the example reference projects.
+> 1. Avoid using hardcoded paths in your toolchain file. Use environment variables.
+> 1. Test on actual hardware if possible—emulated environments may behave differently.
