Raspberry Pi & IoT with Node-RED – Build Projects

Raspberry Pi & IoT with Node-RED – Build Real Projects from Scratch

If you want to build Internet of Things (IoT) applications using Raspberry Pi and Node-RED without getting overwhelmed by complex programming, this course is designed for you.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

• Install and configure Raspberry Pi

• Set up Node-RED on Raspberry Pi and Windows

• Create drag-and-drop IoT flows using Node-RED

• Interface sensors and output devices

• Send data to MQTT brokers and cloud platforms

• Build complete IoT projects with Raspberry Pi and Node-RED

Why This Course?

Many beginners want to learn Raspberry Pi and IoT but face common challenges:

• No experience with Linux or Raspberry Pi

• No programming background

• Confusion about sensors and hardware interfacing

• Difficulty connecting devices to the cloud

This course removes those barriers.

Node-RED simplifies IoT development by allowing you to create logic using visual flows instead of complex code. You will build your first Node-RED flow within the first 20 minutes of the course.

Everything is explained step by step with minimal hardware requirements so you do not feel overwhelmed.
