Homebaked | Raspberry Pi + Django Home Server

Description

We're on the cusp of controlling every item within our house using code, the internet, and a small computer. Microcontrollers are inexpensive computers (like $35 inexpensive) that can be hacked on to create your very own web application for your local network. This is huge. Let's not understate this in any measure. You, yes you, can write some basic code and control every electronic piece in your house? That's pretty awesome. Now, we're still a little ways away before every electronic item is connected to the Internet but once it is, you'll be able to use what you learned here to control these items at will.

Outcome

  1. Local Networked Server using Raspberry Pi 3 Model B
  2. Django-powered web application
  3. Setup Apache2 on a Linux system (useful for other Linux systems)
  4. Create a Home Automation Hub with a Raspberry Pi and Python
  5. Install an OS on a Raspberry Pi (OS: Raspbian Jessie; a Linux Debian distro for Pi)
