The Maker Show: Episode 17 - Coding & GPIO in Windows 10 IoT Core

Did you know that Windows 10 can run on a $35 Raspberry Pi 2 or 3 computer? Makers have taken the world by storm, creating countless gadgets and automated systems, connecting everything around them. This session is for makers – neophytes and veterans alike – who want to explore the capabilities of Windows 10 IoT Core to build hacks based on the Universal Windows Platform (UWP), basically attaching electronic sensors and outputs to their Windows 10 apps.

I talk about the tools, how to get started, what it means to build for the Universal Windows Platform, and how to build your first simple Windows hardware project on the Raspberry Pi using C# and XAML. Take your maker projects to the next level, and come learn valuable skills to prepare and extend your developer skills for the Internet of Things (IoT).
