Congratulations! We have now reached the end of the chapter and the end of the book!
In this chapter, we ran through the electronics and tested programs that control those electronics that create the basis of an IoT Christmas tree. We've seen a RESTful API that can control our IoTree's lights and servo, as well as a comparable MQTT implementation. We also looked at a dweet.io-to-MQTT integration service, which we coupled with IFTTT to provide a mechanism to control out IoTree using email and Google Assistant.
Throughout our journey in this book, we have covered many concepts and technologies, including a variety of networking techniques, electronic and interfacing fundamentals, and a range of practical examples using sensors and actuators with your Raspberry Pi. We have also looked at automation and visualization platforms and finished off, in this chapter, with one example of tying our learnings together.
I had a couple of core intentions in mind when...
