HomeKit Non-Commercial Development Kit

Where to find hardware for HomeKit non-commerciald development?


Most BLE-boards manufacturers require the MFI before selling the board.


If Apple wants really to open non-commercial HomeKit to hobbysists and makers to experiment, a list of available hardware development kit would be greatly welcome.


Thank you.

Feel free to file requests such as this via the bug report link, below right, adding your report # to your thread for reference, thanks and good luck.

any bluetooth LE developer board will work, like the nRF51-DK. Unfortunately, theres no public HAP-BLE 2.0 implementations I know about (since I'm trying to make a library for it myself)

Here is an Open Source SDK being created for inexpensive ESP8266 WiFi boards.
