iot-for-beginners

This repository is a comprehensive, project-based curriculum for learning the Internet of Things (IoT) fundamentals. It is designed for beginners and spans 12 weeks with 24 lessons, each including pre- and post-lesson quizzes, written instructions, solutions, assignments, and sketchnotes. The projects follow the journey of food from farm to table, covering domains such as farming, logistics, manufacturing, retail, and consumer applications. Students build real-world projects like a plant monitoring and watering system, a vehicle tracker, a smart factory setup for food quality detection, and a voice-controlled cooking timer. The curriculum emphasizes learning by building, with a focus on writing device code, connecting to the cloud, analyzing telemetry, and running AI on the edge. It supports multiple hardware options (including virtual hardware for those without physical devices) and provides a shopping list for kits. The repository includes extensive translations (50+ languages) and can be accessed offline via Docsify or PDF generation. It is suitable for self-learners and teachers, with additional resources like a lesson template and teacher suggestions.
