Enter the world of smart projects with Node-RED and the Raspberry Pi Pico W!

Node-RED and Raspberry Pi Pico W is a professional book focused on creating smart applications and IoT projects using the visual tool Node-RED and the Raspberry Pi Pico W microcontroller with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity.

The publication explains how Node-RED can be used to design automation flows and how to integrate the Raspberry Pi Pico W into projects as an endpoint device (e.g., for reading sensors or controlling outputs), and how to connect devices with each other using common communication principles used in IoT (typically over networks and internet services). Note: Node-RED is typically run on a host device (e.g., a Raspberry Pi / PC / server), while the Pico W serves as the microcontroller in the project.

The book is intended for readers who want to understand the procedures and principles of working with Node-RED and the Pico W for prototyping and teaching electronics or IoT. Specific results and the scope of applicability may vary depending on the chosen hardware, sensors, operating environment, and the reader's experience.
