Short description of the idea (1 paragraph)
Requirements:
- Previously knowledge about Python is highly recommended. Don't need to be an expert, but should be comfortable with Python programming idioms. We don't want to end up with a C API on Python.

Allows Soletta node's type development using python. Soletta already supports the development of metatypes using javascript.
Requirements:
- Previously knowledge about Python is highly recommended. Don't need to be an expert, but should be comfortable with Python programming idioms. Also would be nice a general knowledge about mainloop.

Port Soletta to run on cheap ESP8266 modules. It's already possible to run a Lua runtime on them, so it must be possible to run Soletta as well. Modules can be obtained from online stores for about $3 with S&H included, which makes it a very desirable target.
Requirements:
- Language: Good knowledge of C.
- Cross compilation experience not required but desirable.
Mentors: Bruno Bottazzini
Difficulty: Easy
Auto-complete the code in the Soletta Development Application editor while the FBP is being programmed.
It's possible to get what nodetypes Soletta has. Now it will have to get these nodetypes, processing it and make auto-completion tips for the users when they are programming with Soletta Dev-App. We can also auto-complete the syntax to make the FBP development easier and faster.
The auto-complete should have the same behavior as the majority IDE. It will open a box allowing the user of Soletta Dev-App to choose what code to be completed.
Requirements:
- Language: Knowledge in Javascript. Experience with NodeJS, AngularJS or Jquery would be good

Soletta already has a basic port for Contiki, it means build integration, mainloop and basic IO (only GPIO). It's missing network support and others IO, such as, I2C and SPI.
Requirements:
- Language: Good knowledge of C.
- Cross compilation experience not required but desirable.

In Bluetooth Smart (also known as Bluetooth Low Energy) the most interoperable way of communicating with devices is using the GATT protocol. GATT provides a low overhead protocol, with high level concepts (services, characteristics, decriptors) ideal for low power devices, which may be coin cell battery operated.
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) already defines many protocols implemented on top of GATT for many common applications[2].
sol-gatt will provide a high-level API (initially for Zephyr[3] and Linux)
for registering and manipulating local and remote services and characteristics.
Requirements:
- C programming language experience;
- Knowledge of networking programming, Bluetooth technology has many analogs with TCP/IP/Ethernet;

Add the capability to attach to sol-fbp-runner remotely (ip:port) and receive the inspection output for the flow being executed as well the logging messages.
Requirements:
- C programming language experience;
- Knowledge of networking programming;

AllSeen[1] is a notable protocol in the IoT market, AllJoyn is the implementation of the protocol, providing a unified way for discovering devices and services over multiple transports.
Requirements:
- C programming language experience;
- Knowledge of networking programming;

Soletta has its own implementation of the lightweight machine to machine (LWM2M) [1] protocol. The LWM2M protocol is used to remotely control IoT devices, these include: Firmware updates, status reporting and etc. Although Soletta already implements the LMWM2M server and the LWM2M client, Soletta implementation is lacking some main features, that are: a bootstrap server, message encryption and data access control.
Expected Deliveries:
- A LWM2M bootstrap server.
- CoAP message encryption.
- Data access control.
Requirements:
- C programming language experience.
- LWM2M knowledge is desirable.
