Chris is the Head of Developer Relations and Hardware at Golioth. Focusing on hardware and developer relations at that software company means that he is trying to be in the shoes of a hardware or firmware developer using Golioth every day.

Debugging a Zephyr program with GDB can be tough for newcomers, especially if they're used to more vertically integrated IDE solutions. Let's get hardware engineers (and others!) started digging into a command-line based solution.
Use Golioth Connectivity to create Bluetooth-enabled Digital Signage fleets. This demo shows how you can create an LED matrix that shows different informational callouts. We also show how you can easily provision a new device onto your fleet with certificates.

Golioth will join Marcus Engineering in a webinar on July 16th to discuss how newer regulations (CRA, Cyber Mark, PSTI) impact medical devices, and how almost all software-based devices need to be thinking about these regulations in the coming years.
The NXP FRDM-MCXW71 works with Golioth's Bluetooth-to-Cloud capabilities; that means it can communicate back through a standard gateway to the cloud and send data like any other device on Golioth.
