Arduino changed that. The new Q family of boards puts a real Linux computer and a real Arduino microcontroller on the same board, and they talk to each other. Getting Started With Arduino App Lab and Q Boards is your practical guide to actually understanding and using them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a hands-on tour of App Lab, the integrated development environment Arduino built specifically for its single board computers like the Arduino UNO Q. You'll learn what an Arduino SBC really is, how it differs from a traditional microcontroller board, and where it fits in the wider Arduino ecosystem. If you already know your way around Arduino, you'll feel right at home, and you'll quickly see what makes this platform different.\u003cbr\u003eAlong the way, you'll learn how to:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"a-unordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecognize the use-cases where an Arduino Q board is the right tool\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSet up your board and choose compatible hardware\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRun your Q in three different modes of operation, and know when to use each\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWrite Apps that combine Python, Arduino sketches, and web technologies\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUse the router bridge library to make remote procedure calls between your Python and Arduino code\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDrop in Bricks to add complex features like AI models and databases without the heavy lifting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTroubleshoot your code with the Monitor object\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eImport and export your Apps\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe book also includes a Python primer written for Arduino programmers, so the transition feels natural rather than foreign.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Arduino Q ecosystem is brand new, and this book gets you in early.
