rooter147325dI see you're using an Raspberry. Do you prefer it above arduino? But cool stuff, great hobby.

rooter147325d@Tonnoman0909 it's a raspberry, but there are many things you can use. If you want to go iot: particle is a great one. I'm talking about the chip you're seeing.
The hardware stuff you can find by searching 'Arduino starter kit'. It's a great hobby, a lot of tools for funny prices: https://m.banggood.com/nl/...
Wow. That URL.. -
Tonnoman09096025d@rooter thanks, i know about the rasp (I've got one) was mostly interested in some of the other hardware ,will definitely check it out!

10Dev126424d@rooter Yeah I prefer Pi, mostly because I’m not too familiar with c++ and because I like how the Pi uses a full Linux OS.
However, I’ve only ever used Arduinos briefly for a compsci project, and I’ve used Pis extensively for everything from web servers to robots, so maybe it’s just familiarity bias -
rooter147324d@10Dev ah cool! Tnx for answer. I love pi's too, but only did electronics with arduino. That's why I as.
When it comes to c, arduino has a easier version. Nothing to worry about.
This is cool atuff: https://www.particle.io/
It works with decorators on methods. You could write function 'Open Door' and 'Close door' and the decorator exposes it to Internet. A friend works with it as hobby.
What are your plans with the current toys? -
10Dev126424d@rooter that particle thing looks pretty cool.
And honestly, no real plans for the toys. Maybe some home automation stuff, maybe a robot, we’ll see
