Kodsnack 679 - Educational electronics, with David J. Cuartielles Ruiz

About this episode

Fredrik interviews David J. Cuartielles Ruiz about the origins and development of Arduino at Øredev 2025.

Recorded on-stage at Øredev 2025, Fredrik talks to David J. Cuartielles Ruiz about the birth and growth of Arduino . It’s fantastic when an idea comes alive and starts growing. We talk about how Arduino began, how it started to grow, how you find parts and get things manufactured in northern Italy, and of course a bit about the magical logistics king. Many thanks to Øredev for inviting Kodsnack again, they paid for the trip and the editing time of these keynote recordings, but have no say about the content of these or any other episodes.
