Taking IoT Programming to a Higher Level

9:15am to 12:10pm

Join Instantiations and their guest, Toit, as they discuss the need for more productive, higher-level programming experiences for IoT systems. Get first-hand experience with Toit’s object-oriented programming language that’s specifically designed for IoT, and participate in a hands-on demo of this tech with provided ESP32 dev boards and access to Toit’s cloud-based device management platform.

To best prepare for this session, please complete the below setup steps beforehand. All attendees will need their own computer with an available USB-A port.

Questions or issues? Contact us at: toitdemo@instantiations.com

NOTE: Due to COVID-19 safety precautions, session attendance will be limited to around 20 individuals.

Step 1 — Sign up for the Toit platform

Create a Toit account to use during the hands-on tech demo.

(Google and GitHub sign-in options are available.)

Step 2 — Provide your Toit account email to us

Send us the email that was used to create your Toit account in Step 1. This email will be added as a "user" to a special Toit project, named "RIoT Dev Day", that we'll be working with.

Send your email to
toitdemo@instantiations.com

Your email will only be used for this demo, not for marketing or sales purposes.

Step 3 — Install Toit CLI

For this session, we'll only need the CLI (Command Line Interface).

Download software from Toit
https://docs.toit.io/getstarted/installation

Feel free to install the SDK and Visual Studio Code plugin, but they are not necessary for this session.

Step 4 — Install USB serial drivers

These drivers will allow an ESP32 to connect to the Toit platform using a web browser (or the CLI) through a USB interface.

Download drivers
https://www.silabs.com/developers/usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers

For Windows
"CP210x Windows Drivers"

For Linux
No drivers required

For Mac
"CP210x VCP Mac OSX Driver"

Step 5 — Confirm Chrome/Edge is up-to-date

For Toit to connect to an ESP32 from a web browser, a newer version of Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge must be installed.

Any version greater than version 89 is all that's required.

Step 6 — Download a PDF of the slides

Download the slides of the presentation to easily copy and paste commands and follow along.

We'll see you there!
