Weave is a network application layer protocol and, in implementation, a comprehensive toolkit for building connected Internet of Things-class applications, with a primary and current focus on consumer and residential applications.[1]
Weave works across multiple IPv6-bearing link technologies such as Ethernet, Wi-Fi, cellular, and Thread and has adaptations for Bluetooth Low Energy point-to-point wireless links.
On December 19, 2019, Google stated that it had "joined Amazon, Apple, and the Zigbee Alliance to form the Connected Home over IP working group... Google is contributing Weave as part of this effort." Due to this, Google has stopped development on Weave, replacing it with the new Matter (standard).[2]
