Do you ever wonder what's happening at your home when you're not there? Wouldn't it be fun to get a text message when your dryer is done? Using a LAMP stack on a device smaller than a credit card, you will learn to connect sensors to create web-enabled devices to monitor the temperature around your house and more! In this tutorial, you will do all of this on a Raspberry Pi Zero that you get to keep!

Great talk and great demonstration. It's a little hard to keep up with the long terminal commands but this was awesome

It was a great talk, I appreciate all the effort you put on this and the level of details that you had on this. Thanks

I loved this tutorial! Although I am not much of a hardware type of techie, I still enjoyed the overall hands-on programming tutorial. Ken is a natural teacher (who also taught me my first programming language- JavaScript), and I truly do hope he does more tutorials and speeches at conferences!

Very well organized talk. Great to see how to integrate the different technologies to make a real world solution

Great workshop. Speed was perfect.

Please share talk here too (put your slideshare). Maybe, put a simple SMTP server to send the email instead of "hacking" our gmail.

Easy to follow, fun project

Ken did a wonderful job on this tutorial (and the hours and hours or prep work).
The RaspberryPis were set up perfectly with the perfect balance of pre-installed software with enough minor installs left for demonstration purposes.
He took us from a first ssh into the pi, through connecting a sensor, reading data from it and doing several useful tasks with that data.
Not only educational but entertaining.
Great job!

Funny, engaging, patient while people got the pis working. Excellent.

Super fun and surprisingly easy to follow for a beginner.

Super easy to follow, clear instructions, very responsive, as were the two guys whose job it was to walk around and help!
