Every week we talk with startups and enterprise customers who start off on something like an Arduino, only to hit a wall because there is no good way to take it to production.&lt;p&gt;IMHO, the market is ripe for a hardware&amp;#x2F;software platform that bridges the ease of Arduino with a path to production. A bunch of the silicon vendors are in this space, but they offer weak solutions, and things like AWS IoT are really bad on the hardware side.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>The End of Arduino 101: Intel Leaves Maker Market</title><url>http://hackaday.com/2017/07/25/the-end-of-arduino-101-intel-leaves-maker-market/</url></story>

Intel did finally fix the SPI issue about 9 months after it was first reported.&lt;p&gt;With ARM, I had plenty of issues and challenges, but had the documentation and resources I needed to be able to fix things, as well as a better support community.&lt;p&gt;One of the key issues in the Intel support communities was a growing  lack of trust, now confirmed by Intel dropping out. It takes a big commitment to really understand a system, and the nice thing about ARM is that the community goes beyond a single company, so a company dropping out is not as significant as in this case with Intel.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>The End of Arduino 101: Intel Leaves Maker Market</title><url>http://hackaday.com/2017/07/25/the-end-of-arduino-101-intel-leaves-maker-market/</url></story>
