First Look: Javascript Microcontrollers for Web Developers
Right now there are two new micro-controller boards seeking funding—one on Kickstarter, and the other on Dragon Innovation’s new crowdfunding platform—that are slightly different. These boards aren’t just yet another Arduino clone, or yet another possible “Raspberry Pi killer.” These two boards, the Tessel from technical.io and the Espruino from Pur3, intend to take the path least travelled and co-op an existing community not traditionally associated with the maker community.
