The Things Stack is an open source LoRaWAN network server written in Go, providing network, application, and join server components plus an identity server with OAuth 2.0. It supports all LoRaWAN versions and device classes, and offers gRPC/HTTP APIs, a CLI, a web console, and MQTT/webhook integrations.
Use cases
- run a private LoRaWAN network server
- manage LoRaWAN gateways and end devices
- route sensor uplinks to applications via MQTT or webhooks
- self-host an IoT LPWAN backend
- manage device provisioning and join keys
- monitor LoRaWAN network health and gateway outages
When to choose
- you need a standards-compliant LoRaWAN 1.0-1.1 network server for public or private networks
- you want self-hosted or cloud LoRaWAN connectivity with gRPC/HTTP APIs
- you need OTAA/ABP device lifecycle management and a join server
- you want webhook/MQTT integrations with third-party IoT platforms
When to avoid
- your devices use non-LoRaWAN protocols like NB-IoT, LTE-M, or Zigbee
- you need a lightweight sensor firmware or embedded device SDK rather than network infrastructure
- you want a simple point-to-point wireless link without network server overhead
