            FeatherWing Development Boards
                    Würth Elektronik's FeatherWing stacking boards add functionality and space for prototyping
    

Würth Elektronik's FeatherWing development boards are open source and fully compatible with the Feather form factor. Through these development boards, WE brings a range of wireless connectivity modules, sensors, and power modules to the Feather ecosystem.

Adafruit Feather is a complete line of development boards from Adafruit and other developers that can be stacked or used individually. They can be powered by LiPo batteries for on-the-go projects or by micro-USB plugs for stationary use. Feathers are lightweight, portable, and flexible.

FeatherWings are stacking boards that add functionality and space for prototyping. Adafruit Feather is a complete ecosystem of products and an excellent starting point for user projects.
