Guest Tutorial #11: Hardware + JavaScript with noopkat

The Coding Train is thrilled to welcome Suz Hinton (aka noopkat)! Suz shows how to get started with hardware using JavaScript, an Arduino Uno board, an OLED screen and the Johnny-Five library.

Suz Hinton is a web developer who also loves working with electronics as a hobby. She maintains open source hardware libraries on Github, and live streams her coding activities weekly on Sundays.

Using Firmata and Johnny-five to build a JavaScript-Arduino robot. This tutorial was awesome. Thank you for sharing!!

[frontendtesting]

what an awesome collab! so excited to see two great streamers team up!

I really loved this, working with hardware. If you feel like messing around with stuff like this yourself, I'd definitely be interested to see what you come up with.

[aadsh]

That was amazing. More videos like this please.

I hope guest tutorials continues, much love :*

i love you guys :) i haven't watched the full video yet but i already know it's going to be fun to try

[espinozahectorjr]

She's awesome! I want to contribute to her repository. There are a few things that would make this library more accessible and easy to use.

I know that whatever I'll gonna learn in this video will be of no use, still I watched the whole video😂😂

[AllBlackMasterK]

your videos are going in line with the esp8266 based hexapod i'm building :DD

Bit of a random question, but what kind of keyboard is that? That doesn't sound like a mac keyboard.

This was a fun video, I am actually thinking of buying a "hardware-kit-arduino-thingy" now...

[spacewad]

I see you are using the Dracula theme for VSCode. Nice!

[sebastienpelletier]

Realy cool. Could be fun to code directly to arduino with a Processing lib for C++... Maybe someone is working on that right now...

[DMWatchesYoutube]

Anyone know of a javascript interpreter built from hardware?

[stackola]

The condition for 50/50 should be if (num >= 0.5) because Math.random() returns a number between 0 (inclusive) and 1 (exclusive)

[Zedoy]

What is that beautiful vscode theme?!!!

[jkrigelman]

Thumbs up for wishing you were in VIM.

Dan has so many females on his channel, that it appears normal for girls to be involved in computers and science. Thank you for helping to break stereotypes that coding is only a boys club.
