For deployments to devices, having all of the arduino tools installed, ensuring all the dependencies are being installed can be quite cumbersome for someone just wanting to use the product. The feather products come with a bootloader that accepts UF2 files to aid deployment by dragging and dropping the files onto the device using the USB cable without any additional software.

As a user, this would greatly increase adoptability for ease of deployment.

Here's a couple helpful links I found:
