Getting Started

Overview

IoT.js is built based on JerryScript(lightweight JavaScript engine) and libuv for asynchronous I/O event handling.

Supporting direct H/W control

We may need to control things directly from ECMAScript code. How can we make it possible? Let's first describe it at GPIO-control-ideas page.

IoT.js Package

IoT.js also uses NPM tool, node package manager, as for package development and sharing. Visit IoT.js Package page for more information.
