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. He does that by building hardware and reference designs that Golioth customers can use to bootstrap their own designs.
Wireshark is an open-source network monitoring tool that also works to troubleshoot Thread networks. Golioth shows you how to get started using the tool and decoding encrypted wireless mesh packets when working with Thread or OpenThread.
Golioth is showcasing 4 different "color coded" demos at the Zephyr Developer Summit. This post explains some of the concepts and what you can hope to learn when you stop by.
We often use Grafana for visualizing data from IoT devices. We even wrote a WebSockets plugin for the platform that makes sure you can graph your live data as soon as it arrives on Golioth. But our REST API is also useful with the Grafana platform for visualize historic data.
The ESP32 is a great way to get up and running quickly on Golioth. This article, and the accompanying video, walks through the process of provisioning an ESP32, installing the Zephyr RTOS toolchain, then loading and running your firmware.
What if your IoT firmware deployments happened automatically just by typing 'git push'? Lead Engineer Alvaro Viebrantz talks about a sample project that compiles and delivers firmware to eligible devices automatically using Golioth and GitHub Actions.
