What ships, what is next
The roadmap is shaped by what users ask for and contribute. Open an issue, propose a benchmark task, or offer a piece of knowledge.
Limitations
- Scope. Nordic nRF52/53/54L (BLE) and nRF91 (cellular), Espressif ESP32/S3/C6 (Wi-Fi, BLE). nRF7x and Linux hosts are roadmap, not shipping. The nRF54LM20 needs nRF Connect SDK 3.3.0 or newer; the agent tells you when it does.
- DECT NR+ and NTN. NTN’s modem firmware runs only on an nRF9151 of the LACA A1A revision. DECT NR+ needs a modem image from Nordic sales, not a download.
- LoRa. One transceiver is a node, a link or a listener, not a LoRaWAN gateway. SX130x concentrators are not supported today, and the LR2021 has no nRF Connect SDK driver yet. The node path is verified on an nRF52840 with an SX1262. See LoRa and LoRaWAN.
- Benchmark. Six tasks on a single NCS version (v3.2.1) is a first version, not statistical significance. v0.2 targets 20 to 30 tasks, including an ESP suite and older LTS versions.
- CRA readiness. A readiness aid, not a conformity assessment and not legal advice. See CRA readiness.
- Trademarks. nRF and Nordic Semiconductor are trademarks of Nordic Semiconductor ASA; ESP32 and ESP-IDF are trademarks of Espressif Systems. Independent project, not affiliated with or endorsed by either.
