NewLife.IoT — IoT Standard Library  🌐

🌐 简体中文 | 繁體中文 | العربية | বাংলা | Español | Français | हिन्दी | 日本語 | Português | Русский | Deutsch | 한국어

NewLife.IoT is the IoT standard library — defining unified communication protocol contracts for the Internet of Things field. No concrete protocol implementations. Built as the single abstraction layer between IoT platforms and hardware drivers.

Runtime: 31-language localization (aligned with NewLife.Core) · instance-prefixed logging · NativeAOT verified (20 scenarios, Windows/Linux/macOS) · 8 target frameworks (net45 → net10.0).
