The Photon is a tiny Wi-Fi development kit for creating connected projects and products for the Internet of Things. It’s easy to use, it’s powerful, and it’s connected to the cloud.
Mind blown. The photon is so much better than an Arduino it’s not funny.
Coding is very similar to the Arduino, but the photon platform is way better with WIFI out of the box, OTA flashing, 120Mhz processor… The list goes on.
The only downside is the limited IO pins, but nothing some I2C IO expanders won’t fix.
