# Minimal IoT Platform

### Mar 1, 2021
Thanks.
I shall have a look at it.
I’m starting to look into this now as the crypto stuff has been sorted.
What platform is this for - Linux?

Ok, so there is an API that exposes the hardware random number generator.
I’m good to go

Thanks for following up.
I was planning to use a hardware random generator but it seem that it’s not exposed on the ARMv7 platform (need to ask R&D that work with Qualcomm).
I’m thinking of using other physical sources such as RF front end etc. to create random generation as a source. Need to look…

Hi,
So far I have created a library for TweetNacl and used parts of the sodium lib for sha512/256.
From sodium: crypto_hash,crypto_auth, crypto_verify and created a customised random.
That should be enough for now right?

Ok, thanks for the clarification.
I will search a bit more on the SHA-512/256 and try and find something suitable.

Ok, great.
I have used this one in the past:
[https://tls.mbed.org/api/modules.html](https://tls.mbed.org/api/modules.html) [https://tls.mbed.org/api/annotated.html](https://tls.mbed.org/api/annotated.html)
Looks like it covers them.
I have also ported duktape - Javascript Engine so I could make a port for JavaScript. Hopefully I can contribute it to the community.

Hi,
I had a look at these, thanks.
REST API are okay but what about the lower level stuff such as signing a wallet, generating a mnemonic etc.?

Hi,
I’m looking into Algorand and the uses in IoT.
The platform that I have is quite limited and can only compile code for C/C++.
In this case, what is the best approach to realize a transaction on a test node?
What are the minimal APIs that I shall need to port?
Thanks
