Moduware Workshop: Temperature and Humidity

At the Moduware workshop, we will be trying our best at implementing simple projects on the Modpack Starter Pack modules. We will have multiple exercises to start with the platform and plus extra time to experiment and to be creative.

Our focus this time will be mostly on the software part and consumption of existing module features. The knowledge of HTML, JS and CSS can be handy but it is not critical.

For this workshop, we will focus on the Temperature & Humidity sensor from Starter Pack. We will read various values from the module, display them on screen and implement simple logic around temperature changes.

The workshop is suitable for beginners, intermediate and experienced devs (in the creative part).
