The OpenThread RTOS project provides an integration of:

1. OpenThread, an open-source implementation of the Thread networking protocol.
2. LwIP, a small independent implementation of the TCP/IP protocol suite.
3. FreeRTOS, a real time operating system for microcontrollers.

OpenThread RTOS includes a number of application-layer demonstrations, including:

• MQTT, a machine-to-machine (M2M)/"Internet of Things" connectivity protocol.
• HTTP, the underlying protocol used by the World Wide Web.
• TCP, one of the main transport protocols in the Internet protocol suite.

git submodule update --init
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DPLATFORM_NAME=linux
make -j12

This will build the CLI test application in build/ot_cli_linux.

git submodule update --init
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/arm-none-eabi.cmake -DPLATFORM_NAME=nrf52
make -j12

This will build the CLI test application in build/ot_cli_nrf52840.hex. You can flash the binary with nrfjprog(Download) and connecting to the nRF52840 DK serial port. This will also build the demo application in build/ot_demo_101. See the Demo 101 README for a description of the demo application.
