Looking Back, Moving Forward
summary
Organizers describe running a community LoRaWAN conference built on the TTN stack and open-source tools, detailing a functioning local gateway network and dashboard, hosted integrations, and successful in-room gateway deployments. They report concrete lessons on scaling with more than thirty volunteers, budgeting, maps, logistics, sponsorships, and the unexpectedly high effort needed to reproduce the setup elsewhere.
