Platforms, Languages, Backends, time-to-prototype – I need advice.
<***>
I work primarily in business, but I do have a STEM MS, so a lot of the ideas I run into, I want to try to prototype them. I’ve been successful in this, but I feel like I’m spinning my wheels. I bounce between Arduino, MicroPython, different Backends, different environments, and I’m just feeling overwhelmed. I would like advice on what combination of these elements give me the best chance to have something that translates to real-life production. I’m probably never going to be a great developer, but I can do enough to get by. Can anybody relate or give some advice?

My question is have any of you built a system like this using Grafana? I have an electronics and web development background, so I’m confident that I could build the system. I just ordered a ESP32 dev board and will start putting together a base of knowledge. Just curious if anyone has any tips/tricks?
