Do I need an account?
Do I need an account?
Not for BLE, Wi-Fi or Ethernet projects, the sample run, CRA readiness, or your own keys. Cellular, satellite NB-NTN, nRF54 edge-AI basics and the LEW840x gateway firmware need a free account: GitHub or email, no card. Your projects and logs stay on your machine either way.
Which boards and SoCs are supported?
Which boards and SoCs are supported?
Any board built on Nordic nRF52, nRF53, nRF54L or nRF91, or on Espressif ESP32. There is no approved-board list. See supported hardware and the roadmap.
Do you support cellular?
Do you support cellular?
Yes: nRF9160, nRF9161 and nRF9151 with NB-IoT, LTE-M and GNSS, plus a modem trace and a board shell to bring a connection up. See cellular.
Do I need the vendor tools installed?
Do I need the vendor tools installed?
Yes. Adsum drives your existing toolchain, not a replacement for it: the nRF Connect Extension Pack for nRF boards, an ESP-IDF install for ESP boards. See getting started for setup.
Does it help with the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)?
Does it help with the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)?
Yes: one click produces an SBOM, a ranked CVE scan and a posture check from your real build. It is a readiness aid, never a conformity assessment. See CRA readiness.
