There are a hundred ways to provision a device, and with this NFC-based hack day project there are now 101. Follow along as we us a Nordic nRF53 as a writable NFC tag that parses the NDEF message, locates PSK-ID and PSK, then stores those credentials to add the device to an IoT fleet.
If you're already using a J-Link programmer in your embedded development, you can use it to interface directly with the target device serial port over the J-Link USB connection. This is extremely handy, especially if your hardware design connects RX/TX pins to the programming header.
Golioth demonstrates one approach to provisioning IoT devices during manufacturing. Learn some of the challenges you will face with flashing test firmware, generating and passing x.509 certificates to the devices, and using OTA to load final production firmware.
We regularly refer Golioth users to our trusted Design Partners to help design, test, and deploy hardware out into the world. The Golioth Design Partner program has been going for more than 2 years and continues growing. In 2025, we reached 20 listed partners, with others in the wings.
The Thingy:91 X is an upgrade to the original Thingy:91 which enables new features like WiFi, additional sensors, upgraded memory partitions, and new connectors to make extensibility a breeze. Best of all, it already works on Golioth!
Bluesky has seen a large increase in its number of users over the last few weeks. To learn more about how the AT Protocol works, we set up a Pipeline to allow for microcontrollers to post to Bluesky via Golioth.
