Arduino UNO Q hands-on: Smarter with Qualcomm and capable of running a desktop OS like a Raspberry Pi

[Redaktion]

We got a first look at the Arduino UNO Q, marking the first time Arduino has released a board that supports a full desktop operating system, allowing it to function as a compact PC. The board can also run AI models locally, giving beginners a smooth entry point into AI development within a familiar ecosystem.

Development board, not developer board. Also "development board" means "evaluation board" and has absolutely nothing in common with the term SBC, they are describing different things
It means it is a board for developing products before creating a custom PCB etc. it has nothing to do with it being a microcontroller board. A breakout board for a temperature sensor can count as a dev board, and any SBC counts as one too.  They are not terms for different things in the same category, they are completely unrelated terms describing different things entirely.
The idea of a board that can only do simple things and is bare metal programmed rather than with an OS, that is a microcontroller.
