Programmer Passport: Nerves »

Nerves is the platform you’ll use to build embedded systems with Elixir. Learn how to use Nerves to build custom devices, starting with simple tasks like blinking LEDs and sending the value from a sensor to a remote computer. See how to tie together sensors with external systems, all in Elixir. Get started on your Nerves hardware projects at Grox.io!

Recently Released:

• A Functional Programming Kickstart 
• Hands-on Rust 
• Kotlin and Android Development 
• Genetic Algorithms in Elixir 

Continuing through December 23rd, be sure to check https://pragprog.com/promotions/twelve-days-of-pragprog/ at 8:00 a.m. EST, 1:00 p.m. EST, and 6:00 p.m. EST for the latest updates, and remember to follow the #12DaysOfPragProg hashtag on Twitter for even more.*

The Groxio's Nerves module is moving right along, too. In Chapter 2, we shift to building software in layers. In 2018, Bruce Tate and James Gray II turned the Elixir world on its head with the book Designing Elixir Systems with OTP. With this Programmer Passport module, Groxio works with the Nerves core team to explore building Nerves applications using the same layering system. We add in the wrinkle of adapters and configuration so each program can run three ways: in tests, in development mode, and on the target embedded hardware. Join us at Grox.io!
