I’m doing a project for just the sake of it and there are also couple of people who expressed their interest in such product. I’m making an IoT framework! But mainly this is for myself. The website at the moment looks like this.
Hermes Platform Devices Page
It has two devices connected to it, a wifi plug with ESP8266 and a GPS tracker with gps and gsm modules (that design is a little proprietary), I learned tons of stuff about javascript, css, and html while doing this. At the moment this project functions like a web app, however I did not use any framework like React, Angular or Vue. I modify the DOM through javascript, I don’t even use Jquery 😀 I’m planning to switch to react.
Stuff that I learned while doing this project:
UI design is quite important, it has to be done first even before attempting to write a single line of front end code. I should make mockups first! Also studying other designs helps incredibly. Now I have a folder of pictures where I save the UIs that I like, I will be making another blog post about them as well in near future.
