Hello!
A couple of days ago I wrote a post where redirected people to the program “Windows on Devices” from Microsoft. Many people have signed up in it just to get a free Intel Galileo, however the program is something much broader. I had put aside some extra time to extend a bit the original content.
- The first thing to notice is that this program is a program for DEVELOPERS.
If you already know platforms such as Arduino, the transition to the new tools (both hw and sw) will be almost natural. Of course, you can use Visual Studio as a tool for development (would have said that this is of the most cool of the program?)
- Another interesting detail is that all of the existing code of Arduino it will be compatible with a Galileo .
Hmmmmmmm … I have my doubts. The code example of a Blinky is the same in Arduino, so OK here. What happens is that we all know that the “Hello World” run always, we will see what happens when you move more complex code.
Note: if you have created very complex code in Arduino is to kill you. How complicated is not migration but some specific libraries for sensors not standard.
Just go to the main page of the program to be able to see everything.
- The Galileo as it comes does not work, you have to “iron” a special image through a SD.
Beware, if you have a Galileo before, can not install the VS plugIn and give the keyboard and whisky. You will first have to “prepare” the Galileo with a few simple steps (link)
Note: welcome back telnet.
- This program is brother or part of ISS, Intelligence System Services.
Now wonder, and this? queloque? This, ISS is a series of services assembled in Azure to work specifically with IoT projects. And behind this thing, .net Compact Fwk? not… Windows Embedded! Now lightens everything somewhat, Galileo will execute a WE in order to have everything more controlled.
If we add you compatibility with Arduino, with Azure integration and support from ISS, this program is really
A GOOD QUALITY FOR THAT BET THE DEVELOPERS BELIEVE CONNECTED APPLICATIONS.
Finally, if your head sound like words like “universal Apps”, “C#”, etc. Gives you a tour of the FAQ to see that still nothing.
