SwA helps developers to build IoT projects using several development boards: Arduino, ESP8266, ESP32, Raspberry Pi.
SwA covers also topics related to Android development and the convergence between Android and IoT.
I publish periodically tutorials covering different aspects related to IoT and we can develop IoT projects using Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, and Raspberry Pi. SwA describes step by step how to implement an IoT project giving all the details you need to know to build it by yourself.
IoT is an interesting topic and there is much interest around it. This interest is supported by makers, developers, hobbyist that can build IoT projects by themselves following the SwA tutorials. You can experiment, through the SwA, the most innovative technologies and the convergence between IoT and Machine Learning, mobile applications, edge computing, cloud computing.
SwA shares the code of these tutorials on Github.
