RPi Node-Red: Push Button + Buzzer
December 11, 2019
Goal:
The push-button, RGB-LED, and buzzer lessons have all presented input and output separately, but in this lesson we'll be combining them for the first time. Composing input with output and vice-versa is one of the things that makes node-red so powerful!
What you will learn:
How to link Input (Push-button) with output (Buzzer) using node-red. Also how the buzzer and button can be wired to the pi at the same time.

RPi Node-Red: RGB LED
October 1, 2018
Goal:
Introduce the power and utility of the raspberry pi's GPIO pins by using them to control a RGB LED Module.
What you will learn:
What is a GPIO pin and how does it work, how does it relate to node-red. The technical steps of wiring the LED module to your rpi, and getting the software to interact with the hardware.
RPi Node-Red: Push Button
September 28, 2018
Goal:
You can use the GPIO pins can be used for output, like making the RGB Module change colors, but most of the time you will using them as in input device. Sensors like the BME-280 can send data about weather, or a sonic sensor can tell you how close something is. However the simplest possible sensor is a button that simply reports on or off. The goal of this lesson is to learn how to start using node-red to receive input through the GPIO pins.
What you will learn:
How to read the state of a push-button wired to the GPIO pins through node-red.
