🔍 SparkFun Thing Plus Matter // Tech Highlight

We unbox SparkFun's new Thing Plus Matter – a board designed for low-power, distributed sensors and other devices, which can chat with each other over Thread – so you can build a WiFi-independent smart network! The board runs just under $25 and has built-in battery charging, plus a Qwiic port and lots of debugging features. It can be programmed using SiLabs' Simplicity Studio.
