If this happens, you installed node! Yay! Words that are not an error should appear. Open your terminal and type in "npm help" then hit enter. Particle has a bit of software build on Node.js. We'll need this to interface with the photon directly, which lets us get the MAC address and (except for the portable hotpost) we won't need to use our phones. Here is the appįirst, let's manage to connect to the device over USB. You can also set the device up from your phone (not running the hotspot). Read the guide that particle provides, which is detailed. Note, If you want to just use a wifi hotspot and not use the CMU legacy network, you can skip much of this guide. Once we are connected, it's much the same as an arduino for hacking together IoT devices. Then we will make a simple program to test the device out. This guide will not walk you through getting started so much as dealing with getting the device connected initially - a trivial task with traditional networks, but difficult under CMU's network. Interfacing with the device was designed to be as easy as possible, which is great for us. Particle wants us to play nice with it's own dedicated interface - it's own IDE - for programming with the photon. For the cost, we get ourselves access to, basically, a minature breadboard friendly arduino-like platform for creating Prototyping IoT devices. Reprogrammable and connected to the cloud." It costs $20, making it one of the more expensive wireless chip solutions we have available to us.
The Particle Photon is a "A tiny Wi-Fi development kit for prototyping your IoT product.
