Hi Matteo, That is a great idea!
I'm not sure if Nathan's idea will work because Kconfig are completely independent of the board features. Look for example the Photon board, it has WiFi support (BROADCOM_BCM43362) but the only place where it appears is in the defconfig. So, that information should be extracted from the defconfig, not from Kconfig, but if a board doesn't include a board profile with WiFi support we will never discover it. I think a better way to let end user to discover about WiFi feature is having a "wifi" board profile inside configs/ Returning to your original question, I think only Espressif boards, Boufalous Lab BL602 and boards with BCM43362 have WiFi on NuttX. You can enter inside nuttx/boards and run: $ git grep CONFIG_WIRELESS_WAPI It will list the boards that have a board profile that include the "wapi" tool used to configure WiFi on NuttX.
