      In Detail

      Blynk, known as the most user-friendly IoT platform, provides a way to build mobile applications in minutes. With the Blynk drag-n-drop mobile app builder, anyone can build amazing IoT applications with minimal resources and effort, on hardware ranging from prototyping platforms such as Arduino and Raspberry Pi 3 to industrial-grade ESP8266, Intel, Sierra Wireless, Particle, Texas Instruments, and a few others.

      This book uses Raspberry Pi as the main hardware platform and C/C++ to write sketches to build projects. The first part of this book shows how to set up a development environment with various hardware combinations and required software. Then you will build your first IoT application with Blynk using various hardware combinations and connectivity types such as Ethernet and Wi-Fi. Then youll use and configure various widgets (control, display, notification, interface, time input, and some advanced widgets) with Blynk App Builder to build applications. Towards the end, you will learn how to connect with and use built-in sensors on Android and iOS mobile devices. Finally you will learn how to build a robot that can be controlled with a Blynk app through the Blynk cloud and personal server.

      By the end of this book, you will have hands-on experience building IoT applications using Blynk.

      Style and approach

    Preface

    Blynk is referred to as the most user-friendly IoT platform, providing a way to build mobile applications in minutes. With Blynk's drag and drop mobile app builder, anyone can build amazing IoT applications with minimal resources and effort. Blynk supports over 400 hardware platforms and major connectivity types. The hardware could be prototyping platforms, such as Arduino and Raspberry Pi, to industrial-grade ESP8266, Intel, Sierra Wireless, Particle, and Texas Instruments offerings.

    This book uses Raspberry Pi as the main hardware platform and C++ for writing code to build projects.

    The first part of this book offers how to set up the development environment with Raspberry Pi, Raspbian Stretch LITE, and various software components. Then, the reader will build the first IoT application with Blynk.

    The middle part of the book presents how to use and configure various widgets (control, display, and notify) with Blynk app builder to build applications.

    The latter part of the book will introduce how to connect with and use built-in sensors on mobile devices such as Android and iOS. After this, the reader will learn how to set up a personal Blynk server on Raspberry Pi. Finally, the reader will learn how to build a robot vehicle that can be controlled with a Blynk app through the Blynk cloud service.

    Who this book is for

    This book is for those who want to build rapid IoT applications in minutes for connected products and services with only a basic understanding of electronics, Raspberry Pi, and C++.

    What this book covers

    , Setting Up a Development Environment, explains how to set up the development environment for Blynk with Raspberry Pi. It describes how to install Blynk libraries and some supporting software components that you can use to build Raspberry Pi-based IoT hardware. Then, you will build a control application with Blynk app builder. After that, you need to write a C++ application to connect with the Blynk cloud. Finally, you run the Blynk app to connect the Raspberry Pi to Blynk app builder through the Blynk cloud over a Wi-Fi network.

    , Building Your First Blynk Application, explains how to build your first Blynk application to control an LED (or any actuator) attached to the Raspberry Pi from your smartphone or tablet. First, you will build an app with the Blynk app builder. Then, you will use digital or virtual pins to control the attached LED. After that, you will learn how to write a simple C++ application with nano text editor. Finally, you will build the application and run it to connect the Blynk app and the Raspberry Pi hardware.
