@hugobarauna and I (Alex Koutmos) have been hard at work on writing a book on Nerves that takes you from simply blinking LEDs to building LiveView powered kiosks (and everything in between).
You’ll be building projects like:
- A Morse code translator
- A reaction time tester
- An Etch A Sketch that renders in Livebook using knobs
- Upgrading the Etch A Sketch to use a joy stick
- Rending CPU temperature from the Raspberry Pi in LiveBook using VegaLite (you’ll also write a simple stress test to get the CPU hot
) - A simple weather report/clock using a 20x04 LCD display
- Displaying of accelerometer data using OLED displays
- Interacting with accelerometer data using a LiveView kiosk
By the end of the book, you will have built a wide a array of projects and should be more than comfortable tackling some of your own Nerves projects!
Part 1: Rapid Prototyping Nerves Using Livebook
- Getting Started With Livebook
