Welcome to Openduino
Openduino is a community-led initiative to create an open, stable, and democratically governed home for open hardware and open software. It is a project built by the community, for the community, and owned by no company or private individual.
With recent changes in the wider maker ecosystem, many people are concerned about the future of open tools they rely on. Openduino aims to provide a safe and lasting alternative rooted in openness, shared stewardship, and long-term transparency.
Our Goals
- Protect open-source principles permanently
- Ensure community ownership through a charity-first structure
- Develop hardware and software that remain free and accessible
- Create a welcoming space for makers of all backgrounds and abilities
