Liverpool LUG meeting - November 6th 2019 - 7pm onwards


Location:DOES Liverpool, First floor, 68-76 Kempston Street, Liverpool, 
L3 8HL


This month we have a talk I’m really looking forward to as Julian tells 
us about the work he’s been doing on the MING stack. Queue many bad 
jokes about Ming The Merciless from me probably, apologies in advance. 
Here’s a quick synopsis Julian has kindly written for us so you can see 
what it’s about...


"How old is the coffee?


Julian Todd will talk about the MING stack 
(MQTT+InfluxDB+Node-RED+Graphana) that's easy to install on a phone in 
UserLAND app (easy linux on android) or an Rpi and is the answer all 
your IoT dreams — as long as those dreams don't include the smoke+mirror 
dreams of Machine Learning doing all the creative work for you.


If there's time, we can follow on to the Thing part of IoT and show how 
MicroPython provides both the perfect operating system and API using a 
technique known as "scriptleting" on a $2 wifi enabled device called an 
ESP8266.  However, for development purposes we recommend working with 
its big sister the ESP32. Bring yours along and we'll mesh it into the 
network."


As usual ALL are welcome at the user group meeting and no prior level of 
Linux skill or experience is required, we’re a friendly bunch and it’s 
definitely informal. So just come along and say hello :-)


We usually meet from 7pm but the talk won’t start until 7:30 to give 
people time to get in and find a spot.


Full directions to DOES and other information can be found on their

Hope to see many of you there,


Dan
