Topics I've Started
Where to start?
31 July 2011 - 05:31 PM
I've been using Arduino for a while, and before I started using it, I basically had no programming skills. My only programming skills came from writing scripts in .lua for GTA:San Andreas.
So now I've been programming in Javascript (for you haters, I'm aware that this is NOT java. Stop whining about it.) on my Arduino.
Thing is, I probably would've given up if it wasn't for the countless examples that came with the Arduino software.
Now to the point:
I bought a Netduino plus. I did a very stupid thing by doing so, thinking the "duino" part of its name, ment it would just be a Ethernet verision of Arduino Uno as they looked very similar. This thing was flying out of the sparkfun store, and I got one of the last ones before it ran out of stock in the beginning of the year.
So I got it in the mail, and I checked out the manual.
To my horror, it demanded Visual Studio, and the only support I got was "Here, let's show you how to get a light to blink".
Well, the lightpart worked out great at least, so that's something.
Now I got Visual Studio. Though, I barely even open the program, I'd rather program for the Arduino with something I understand and where I can read examples if I'm clueless. They even got a searchdatabase for the programming expressions.
So where do I start with Netduino Plus?
I don't want this to just be sitting on my shelf.
And I'd really like to learn the language it's programmed in.
Suggestions?
