embedded C++ programming and IoT hardware projects. If you want to build embedded systems and IoT hardware from scratch, this step-by-step guide takes you from reading sensors to sending data over the network with efficient C++. Whether you're a beginner or a pro, you'll learn to program microcontrollers, optimize memory, and connect devices securely. Unlike C# 14 and .NET 10 – Modern Cross-Platform Development Fundamentals by Mark J. Price and C# 12 and .NET 8 – Modern Cross-Platform Development Fundamentals by Mark J. Price, which focus on high-level web apps, this book dives deep into low-level hardware control and real-time constraints. What You'll Learn Set up your development environment for ARM, AVR, and ESP32 Read analog and digital sensors with precise timing Implement efficient data logging and filtering Send data via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and LoRaWAN Optimize C++ code for memory and power constraints Build a complete IoT prototype from sensor to cloud Who This Book Is For Hobbyists, engineers, and students who want hands-on experience with C++ on real hardware. No prior embedded knowledge required. Why Choose This Book? Most IoT books assume you already know hardware or use high-level languages. This book bridges the gap with clear explanations, practical projects, and performance tips. You'll write lean, fast code that works on resource-constrained devices. Competitors like C# 14 and .NET 10 – Modern Cross-Platform Development Fundamentals by Mark J. Price and C# 12 and .NET 8 – Modern Cross-Platform Development Fundamentals by Mark J. Price cover different ecosystems; this book is your dedicated guide to C++ for connected devices.
