The Silicon Labs Arduino Core is becoming truly open source and ready for community contributions. This is an important step toward a more open, collaborative developer experience for everyone building with Silicon Labs devices in the Arduino ecosystem.
For those new to the project: this is the official Arduino Matter core for Silicon Labs devices, supported by Silicon Labs and Arduino. It supports boards including the Arduino Nano Matter, Seeed Studio XIAO MG24, SparkFun Thing Plus Matter - MGM240P, and other Silicon Labs development boards.
And it’s not only about Matter. The core also includes BLE support, giving developers a familiar Arduino workflow for building connected applications on Silicon Labs hardware.
To make this possible, we’re transferring the repository from the SiliconLabs GitHub organization to SiliconLabsSoftware:
github.com/SiliconLabsSoftwa…
This move will make it easier for developers to report issues, suggest improvements, submit pull requests, and help shape the future of Arduino support for Silicon Labs devices.
More broadly, Silicon Labs is committed to making it easier for developers and communities to collaborate around the software that helps bring connected products to life. The
@arduino ecosystem has always grown through community ideas, examples, fixes, and shared experience. We’re excited to take this next step and open the door wider for collaboration.
If you’re using the core, we’d love to hear from you: what would you like to see improved, added, or documented next?
