Hands-on with Open IoT

The Things Network in Birmingham continues to grow! With six gateways now up and running we are covering more and more of the city with a free, open network for connecting sensors to the internet. We had some great suggestions and use cases come up at our kickoff meeting and it's time to build on that momentum with some hands on hacking.

We'll have a handful of dev boards and some simple sensors on hand, and will break into small groups to get a device connected to The Things Network and sending data.

Plan to bring:
A laptop (Mac, Windows, Linux, doesn't really matter)
A micro-USB cable
Your ideas and enthusiasm!

If you want to be the person on your team actually coding, please follow the rough guide here to get all of your dev toolchain set up:
