Getting Started

LINE Things is a platform that connects Bots and Web services together with IoT devices that are Bluetooth LE enabled.

To start developing for LINE Things using the example code and the sample firmware, the following steps are necessary.

Installing the Firmware

To start development using the example firmwares, you will need a compatible Bluetooth LE enabled development board. Currently LINE Things Starter firmwares supports the following 6 development boards

Each firmware is located under line-things-dev-board, esp32, m5stack, m5stick-c,nrf52, microbit, obniz and puckjs respectively. For further details, please refer to the README file in each directory.
