IOhub - Easiest way connecting electronics

IOhub is a platform that allows you to connect your Raspberry Pi with other hardware. I can use a servo, an ultrasonic sensor, a camera, even WiFi and it is all very easy for my use. I can use the platform without a problem. There are some things the developers should improve. Some of the options can be a bit confusing. For example, I don't understand why I have to use a GPIO to communicate with the servo. This is the only part of the servo that is available to me. The software is very easy to use and I can control the servo in seconds. I can also use WiFi to communicate with other devices. The platform is free, so I don't mind giving it a try. I'm trying to teach children how to program with the Raspberry Pi. They can control the servo and turn it on and off. They can also connect the servo to a camera in order to have a robot. It's easy to use, very intuitive and has all the tools we need in order to develop our own solutions quickly and easily.The support is excellent too! We are solving problems of energy efficiency at home with IoT devices. With this solution it is possible to monitor temperature and humidity levels remotely from anywhere through an app or website. This allows us to check if there are any issues that may affect the comfort of our customers.

Pros
  • Easy communication;
  • Ease when interfacing different sensors.
  • Very simple UI/UXDesign (interface)
  • Intuitive navigation flow
  • Everything works as expected / nothing unexpected happens while usingI dislike:{}
  • Hardware availability couldbe better(more connectors like DC)
Cons
  • I will keep silent
