Spotsaas Editor’s POV

Particle works best for developers building connected devices with straightforward connectivity needs.

"one of the simplest ways to get into IoT dev"

What do you like best about Particle? I think that they make the hardware part of doing IoT dev less painful. I don't have a hardware background so programming firmware isn't something I have much experience with. I like that provisioning a new particle device is super easy and that writing firmware and getting it sync'd to your device is simple and can be done over wifi or cellular instead of having to connect with USB.
