Great hardware deserves great software
For the nRF53 and nRF52 Series we offer the nRF Connect SDK, a complete software development kit for developing Bluetooth Mesh applications. It integrates the scalable Zephyr RTOS, Bluetooth Mesh and Bluetooth LE stacks, a variety of samples, hardware drivers and much more.
We have ported the lower layers of our SoftDevices (Bluetooth LE protocol stacks) to the nRF Connect SDK, bringing with us the best-in-class interoperability our SoftDevices are known for. The result is the SoftDevice Controller. The SoftDevice Controller is used by both the Bluetooth Mesh stack and the Zephyr Bluetooth Host concurrently.

The nRF5 SDK for Mesh can be still used with the nRF52 Series, but it is in maintenance mode. For all new projects, we recommend the nRF Connect SDK.
Bluetooth Mesh
nRF Connect SDK supports the Bluetooth Mesh and is being continuously updated to support the latest features. Currently, most Bluetooth Mesh features are supported, including v1.1 specifications.
