The Spark Core and Photon are inexpensive boards that let you connect your electronic projects to the cloud over Wi-Fi. It's as easy to program as Arduino, and at under $40 for the Core ($20 for the Photon!), it's an inexpensive way to make your creations part of the Internet of Things. Since they are open source hardware and software, you can customize them to your needs, and even manufacture your own boards that incorporate the design. This book gets you started with the Core and Photon and quickly shows you how to program them using the web-based development environment. You'll use the same programming language that's used for Arduino, and you'll learn how to connect analog and digital inputs and outputs. From there, Getting Started with Spark Core and Photon takes you to more advanced projects including robots and remotely-controllable systems. With this book, you'll be creating things that can talk to each other across the world or across the room!
