Hi,
I would like to ask about the future plans for Zigbee development, as the current situation is a bit confusing.
From what I’ve observed, Zigbee R22 has been deprecated in nRF Connect SDK v2.8.0.
I’m using nRF Connect SDK v2.9.0 and can still build my application using the CONFIG_ZIGBEE
symbol, but of course, I receive a deprecation warning during the build.
To stay up to date, I looked into the Zigbee R22 add-on.
It appears to be another Zephyr type module.
However, the Software Requirements suggest initializing it with west using this repository.
The issue is that this repository (ncs-zigbee-r22) does not exist.
What does exist, however, is ncs-zigbee.
which seems to be Zigbee R23 targeting the nRF54L series.
I would like following things to be clarified:
- How can I stay up to date with Zigbee for the nRF52 series?
- Will Zigbee R23 support the nRF52 series, or will it be exclusive to the nRF54 series?
- Will Zigbee come back as built in nRF Connect SDK lib or will it remain as external Zephyr type module?
Thanks in advance!
