Best starter gear for development?
New HAM but old-school embedded linux guy.  Excited to play with this stuff!  What do you recommend for a set of ~3 devices to use for development?

AREDN Starter kit
For starters, in the ham shack, the Mikrotik ac3 is indispensable; very flexible and powerful.
There are some high level nodes on Mount Sutro - if you have true LOS (no trees, no buildings!) to the southwest you might be able to hit them.  If so, a good recommendation for an outside node is the Ubiquiti Litebeam 5ac Gen2.   It's rugged, cheap, and has lots of gain.

Recommend skimming the AREDN docs; they'll give you a great overview of what all can be done with AREDN.
