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 WebAssemblyKey FeaturesBuild creative embedded apps with TinyGo
using low-powered devices and microcontrollersUnderstand the practicality
involved in integrating hardware and sensors while programming them using
TinyGoUse TinyGo in modern browsers to display embedded applications'
statistics on WebAssembly dashboardsBook DescriptionWhile 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.This 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.By 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.What you will
learnDiscover a variety of TinyGo features and capabilities while programming
your embedded devicesExplore how to use display devices to present your
dataFocus on how to make TinyGo interact with multiple sensors for sensing
temperature, humidity, and pressureProgram hardware devices such as Arduino
