When it comes to what you can do with a tiny piece of technology called Raspberry Pi, the sky is the limit. This application is one of the big leaps of the technology world from the neighborhood sized applications to the minimalist styled computers made available to anyone and everyone. It is a portable application that can do things previously impossible with traditional desktop computers. It has GPIO pins which give easy access to interface and external devices. This systematically allows the Pi to act as a bridge between embedded electronics and power supplied by Linus. In essence, you could choose to sun any code in your favorite programming language and still interface it directly to external hardware. Once this is coupled with the wireless networking capabilities introduced in Raspberry Pi, there exist ability to make applications that would not have been feasible to make before this device existed.
Basically, the course teaches you; - How to build an application that integrates seamlessly with microcomputers, controllers, sensors, radio receivers, cloud services, databases and web servers. - How to upgrade this application with new hardware and software - How nodes communicate via modern radio transceiver, sense their environment, reveal their status on organic LED display and web interface, as well as - How full stack application uses the Raspberry Pi zero 2W single-board computer and the ESP32 microcontroller
By the time you are done with this online raspberry-pi-full-stack-upgrade-project, you will be expected to have; - Become better at conducting the analysis, design and planning required for working on large projects. - Possessed improved grasp and ability to build full stack application on the Raspberry Pi - Improved your knowledge of the Linus operating system and its command lines - Attained important skills in maintaining, extending and modifying full stack application - Identify and show Raspberry Pi status information on OLED screen, and - Been able to use google charts and plotly graph object in a Raspberry Pi web application among others
Students of this course could be graduates of original Raspberry Pi full stack course, makers looking for non-trivial Raspberry Pi project, and makers who are willing to upskill their skillset from the viewpoint of operating system to the internet of things. Regardless of the category you belong, it is recommended that you take the Raspberry Pi full stack course before attempting the upgrade project. Similarly, you must be comfortable with Linus, its command as well as wiring simple circuits.
Although students of this course could be graduates of original Raspberry Pi Full Stack Course, it doesn’t have to be so. This course is explanatory enough help new beginners get on board and understand every details. The course is suited for both beginners and previously experienced developers.
T.Boy: I was formerly a student of a Raspberry Pi full stack course but this upgrade project took me through a different level of lesson with new impact and of course practical coverage. I particularly enjoyed learning how to set up a remote wireless Arduino sensor node and collect data from it. Raspberry Pi application was able to process the Arduino node data in the same way it processes data from is onboard sensor. It was really creatively inspiring.
