After years of experimenting with Raspberry Pi boards, Java, JavaFX, and Pi4J to control electronics, I wanted to explore whether my knowledge and experience could be applied to similar boards from other providers. There are many alternatives available these days, based on ARM, Intel processors, and RISC-V architectures.
I reached out to several suppliers to see if I could get evaluation copies, and I'm happy to share that I received my first box from DFRobot containing the LattePanda IOTA.
In the video, I unpack the box I received, perform a first boot into the pre-installed Windows, replace it with Ubuntu, prepare it for Java development, and run some quick tests with JBang Java applications.
