The number of connected devices is growing rapidly and will continue to do so over years to come. By 2020, there will be more than 20 billion connected devices and the ability to program such devices will be in high demand. Particle provides prototyping boards for IoT that are easy to program and deploy. Most importantly, the boards provided by Particle can be connected to the Internet very easily as they include Wi-Fi or a GSM module.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStarting with the basics of programming Particle Photon and Electron, this book will take you through setting up your local servers and running custom firmware, to using the Photon and Electron to program autonomous cars. This book also covers in brief a basic architecture and design of IoT applications. It gives you an overview of the IoT stack. You will also get information on how to debug and troubleshoot Particle Photon and Electron and set up your own debugging framework for any IoT board. Finally, you'll tinker with the firmware of the Photon and Electron by modifying the existing firmware and deploying them to your boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy the end of this book, you should have a fairly good understanding of the IoT ecosystem and you should be able to build standalone projects using your own local server or the Particle Cloud Server.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStyle and approach\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis project-based guide contains easy-to-follow steps to program Particle Photon and Electron. You will learn to build connected applications with the help of projects of increasing complexity, and with each project, a new concept in IoT is taught.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Packt Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131355873520,"sku":"9781785887345","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781785887345_p0.jpg?v=1763729659","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781785887345","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
