![]() ![]() In the following steps below, we’ll work towards running a Hello World node app on a Windows IoT-enabled RP2. As a result, there is a different process to get node.js on a Windows IoT device, as compared to downloading and building node for a Linux target device. ![]() It’s trivial to set up a RESTful API and web server, which both come in handy for talking to and managing devices.įor Windows on Arm (WoA), like the Raspberry Pi 2 (RP2), Microsoft’s implementation of node.js is based on the Chakra Javascript engine. What makes node great for embedded devices is that it is asynchronous, enables tight/small applications, has a rich ecosystem for extensions and offers built-in web services. I’m a big fan of node.js on embedded devices and was pleased to hear that Microsoft would be making node available for Windows IoT.
