Workshop: An end to end integration of a LoRaWAN sensor
summary
https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/ Assembles a Heltec ESP32 LoRa board with BME280 + DS18B20 and LM35, programs it in the Arduino IDE with vendor libraries, pastes ABP keys and device address into firmware, and registers the node on The Things Network so uplinks decode as Cayenne LPP — payloads arrive and map to temperature humidity pressure channels. Notes practical failures: wrong I2C IDs, serial monitor locked, and a five‑minute sleep cycle; end‑to‑end sending and decoding works.
