# DePIN Boards
|
|
|
|
The DePIN Boards provide an organized overview of various DePIN projects, categorized by their primary focus areas, such as compute, storage, wireless, energy, sensor, and mobility networks, among others.
|
|
|
|
The purpose of those boards is to provide educational and informational content only. If you have any feedback, please let us know by writing an [issue on our Gitea instance](https://git.ourworld.tf/tfgrid/info_docs_depin).
