This book covers the finer details of microcontrollers and low-powered embedded device programming with TinyGo. You'll work through a range of interactive and real-world embedded projects that will help you to build creative thinking and understand a variety of TinyGo features and capabilities for programming hardware and multiple input devices.
Über den Autor
Tobias Theel works as the Technical Lead and DevOps for a German FinTech startup fino and since 2020 he has also started working for RegTech startup, ClariLab, as Lead Software Engineer. Being a software architect and an expert for Go and TinyGo alongside C# and Java, he is also iSAQB certified. Theel is a highly enthusiastic community contributor and is among the top 10% responders in C# and Unity3D as well as top 20% responders in .NET, Go, and Visual Studio on StackOverflow.nWhen not programming for fino or ClariLab, he can be found developing games, mainly at game jams such as the Ludum Dare Jam, where he develops games from scratch within 72 hours. As an active speaker at tech talks and a participant for numerous hackathons, Theel loves to share his knowledge of software development with fellow enthusiasts.
Klappentext
Explore embedded programming, and get hands-on with real-world embedded projects relating to IoT, low-powered devices, and other complex systems using TinyGo and WebAssemblynnnKey features:Build creative embedded apps with TinyGo using low-powered devices and microcontrollersnUnderstand the practicality involved in integrating hardware and sensors while programming them using TinyGonUse TinyGo in modern browsers to display embedded applications' statistics on WebAssembly dashboardsnnnnnBook Deillegalscription:nWhile often considered a fast and compact programming language, Go usually creates large executables that are difficult to run on low-memory or low-powered devices such as microcontrollers or IoT. TinyGo is a new compiler that allows developers to compile their programs for such low-powered devices. As TinyGo supports all the standard features of the Go programming language, you won't have to tweak the code to fit on the microcontroller.nnnThis book is a hands-on guide packed full of interesting DIY projects that will show you how to build embedded applications. You will learn how to program sensors and work with microcontrollers such as Arduino UNO and Arduino Nano IoT 33. The chapters that follow will show you how to develop multiple real-world embedded projects using a variety of popular devices such as LEDs, 7-segment displays, and timers. Next, you will progress to build interactive prototypes such as a traffic lights system, touchless hand wash timer, and more. As you advance, you'll create an IoT prototype of a weather alert system and display those alerts on the TinyGo WASM dashboard. Finally, you will build a home automation project that displays stats on the TinyGo WASM dashboard.nnnBy the end of this microcontroller book, you will be equipped with the skills you need to build real-world embedded projects using the power of TinyGo.nnnWhat You Will Learn:Discover a variety of TinyGo features and capabilities while programming your embedded devicesnExplore how to use display devices to present your datanFocus on how to make TinyGo interact with multiple sensors for sensing temperature, humidity, and pressurenProgram hardware devices such as Arduino Uno and Arduino Nano IoT 33 using TinyGonUnderstand how TinyGo works with GPIO, ADC, I2C, SPI, and MQTT network protocolsnBuild your first TinyGo IoT and home automation prototypesnIntegrate TinyGo in modern browsers using WebAssemblynnnnnWho this book is for:nIf you are a Go developer who wants to program low-powered devices and hardware such as Arduino UNO and Arduino Nano IoT 33, or if you are a Go developer who wants to extend your knowledge of using Go with WebAssembly while programming Go in the browser, then this book is for you. Go hobbyist programmers who are interested in learning more about TinyGo by working through the DIY projects covered in the book will also find this hands-on guide useful.
