Treon Gateway - Development Environment

Introduction

The Treon Gateway provides a powerful ARM-based Linux platform (Yocto) for running edge compute applications.

Developers can easily deploy and execute applications written in

• Python 2.7 or 3 (preloaded)
• Node.js (preloaded)
• native GCC and other compiled applications

You can develop applications directly on the gateway, as it supports both Python and Node.js. However, it’s a recommended practice to develop on a computer, and then copy the code to the gateway using SCP.

To install or remove additional packages, use pip (Python) or npm (Node.js).

You can also use the gateway to compile your applications, but the compile time will be noticeably longer than when using a powerful workstation.
