Build Hardware with TuyaOpen IDE
The full-stack hardware development tool for the AI era — from project creation to device firmware, cloud agent, and app development. Three surfaces, one workflow. Vibe Coding Your Way.
Works with Your Favorite IDE
Extensions that plug directly into your daily workflow — zero context switching, maximum velocity.
IDE Native
First-class extensions for VS Code and Cursor. All hardware tooling lives where you already code — no separate apps, no extra windows.
Pair With Any Coding Agent
Pair TuyaOpen IDE with any coding agent — Claude Code, Codex, or your own. Hardware context flows straight into the agent, so it understands your board, peripherals, and SDK. Vibe-code your next device.
Firmware, Cloud & App in One
AI-coding-driven development — the first tool to unify device firmware, cloud AI agents, and app panels in a single workflow. From hardware bring-up to a production-ready product, fully automated.
Real-World Hardware Vibe Coding Workflows
Built-in SDK expert skills, hardware context & workflows— a hardware ReAct loop of code → build → debug → code, fully hardware-in-the-loop, so shipping connected AI devices is faster and easier.
New Project, build, and flash
VibeCoding narrows down the SDK and peripherals, forks a template, wires up DP and CLI hooks, then compiles and flashes a binary to hardware — the create, build, and flash lane shown in the demo.
Authenticate and connect
Provision device identity, open the monitor stream, attach Wi-Fi, bind to Tuya Cloud, and push DP telemetry — the auth credentials and live cloud path you see in the log.
Debug and CLI test
Read UART, I2C, and sensor output in real time, then inject hardware CLI commands to force reads and connectivity checks — debugging plus scripted hardware tests on the board.
Built for Every Stage of Development
From chip selection to firmware deployment, TuyaOpen IDE covers the entire embedded IoT workflow.
