How are you using the Portenta X8?

Good morning/evening Arduino gurus of the world. I'm catching up on all things Arduino and found the Portenta X8. It runs a version of Linux?? :star_struck: You think I could run Node.js on an X8? What are you using the X8 for?

I'm dreaming about a robot project with a browser UI today.

Guess so, the idea is to run docker images on the linux side. So you can e.g. setup a debian docker image and install node.js in that one. Don't have much experience with the X8 yet, but we intend to use it in our project. The few days I played with it I was able to set up a debian docker image and install linux packages on it so node.js shouldn't be a problem.

Docker images! Ok, that makes sense and is super cool. Thanks for the note. :smiley:
