# Development Board Porting
OpenHarmony has organized a Special Interest Group (SIG) [SIG_DevBoard](https://gitee.com/openharmony/community/blob/master/sig/sig-devboard/sig_devboard.md) to provide support for third-party development boards.

Before learning about how to port the code of a development board, take a look at the device classification on OpenHarmony. The porting methods vary according to the device type.

| Device Type| Hardware Requirement| Supported Kernel|
|---------|-------------|----------------|
| Mini-system devices| Memory > 128 KB| LiteOS-M       |
| Small-system devices| Memory > 1 MB, with MMU| LiteOS-A and Linux|
| Standard-system devices| Memory > 128 MB|  Linux       |

## Code Preparation

OpenHarmony has created repositories for vendors in openharmony-sig. To participate in the repository development, you need to use the following method to initialize and download the code.

```shell
repo init -u https://gitee.com/openharmony-sig/manifest.git -b master -m devboard.xml --no-repo-verify
```

The download steps for other resources are the same as those in the mainline version.
