Workshop: IoT Experiments - build your own prototype!

Description

This repository contains sources for IoT Experiments workshop. The workshop is based on programming NodeMCU (ESP8266) with Arduino IDE.

Work is split to four parts (steps):

• device assembly
• work with temperature sensor
• HTTP calls
• connection to cloud - Yaas

Requirements !!!

All steps have to be performed before workshop!

Arduino

Install Arduino IDE

https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software - choose your operating system in the menu on the right side, on next page click "Just download"

Add NodeMCU board

• run Arduino
• go to File > Preferences and paste "http://arduino.esp8266.com/staging/package_esp8266com_index.json" into Additional Board Manager URLs", save changes
• go to Tools > Board > Boards Manager, search for ESP8266, click on it and Install

Add libraries

Go to Sketch > Include Library > Manage Libraries Search and install 3 packages (paste it exactly like it is):

• "Adafruit Unified Sensor based libraries"
• "DHT sensor library"
• "ArduinoJson"

USB drivers

• OSX: Install driver
• Windows: driver is build in

Yaas
