Gave me new ideas to try and it has not to many complicated instructions I recommend it for raspberry pi users

Good overall treatment of the topics, for both the RPi and Arduino. More useful projects with libraries available from author's website. A good primer for those wanting to get their feet wet on both platforms.

Great how-to book! There are a few grammatical errors but who cares when you finally learn how all the code you've been hearing about works!

There's good info in there but hard to follow at times. One of the installs "npm install express arest jade" I could not make work. Not sure if the book is out dated with pi/software that might have updated since the book was written.

happy with book

Perfect book for a techy who wants to control their homes .

A nice easy to read set of comments
