Preface
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a complex, interconnected system-of-systems composed of different hardware devices, software applications, data standards, communications paradigms, and cloud services. Knowing where to start with your own IoT project can be a bit daunting. Programming the Internet of Things is designed to get you started on your IoT development journey and shows you, the developer, how to make the IoT work.
If you decide to stay with me through this book, you’ll learn how to write, test, and deploy the software needed to build your own basic, end-to-end IoT capability.
Who Is This Book For?
Programming the Internet of Things is, at its core, a book about building IoT solutions—from device to cloud.
This book was primarily written as a teaching guide for my Connected Devices course at Northeastern University, and for any students interested in learning how to program IoT solutions. While it’s structurally focused on assisting students and practitioners, it can also be helpful for those interesting in learning more about IoT concepts and principles.
Throughout the book, you will find step-by-step guidelines for building your own end-to-end IoT capability, with exercises within each chapter that build on one another to help you cement your knowledge of the IoT. If you’re more interested in the concepts, however, that’s perfectly fine! You can learn about the what and why but move quickly through the how and skip the exercises, if you’d prefer.
