What a great intro to Rainmaker! This has been on my radar to look into for ages, but you'd just summarised it perfectly for me, thanks! Also, nothing was out of focus for me.

[@Magic-Smoke]

Glad you enjoyed it - I'll be doing some more as I develop new applications for Rainmaker. It suits my lifestyle perfectly!

[@7GIGEO7]

Thank you for this great introduction to Rainmaker.

[@hubert.unterberger]

thanks for the vid. It did a lot to help me getting started!

[@mikewhitley7008]

Thanks for great video. A really good introduction to Rainmaker and leaving the mistakes in regarding the missing and mislabelled COM ports was really helpful.

[@Magic-Smoke]

Thanks for subscribing, Mike. I like to leave in the hurdles since I seem to have the knack of hitting most of them with the inevitable head scratching - lol

[@aaryamanandhar6964]

Thank you, this was very helpful! :)

[@Magic-Smoke]

You're very welcome!

[@MichaelBall_Robotics]

Great video John. More of this content would be awesome. Subscribed!

[@Magic-Smoke]

I'm planning a few more using Rainmaker, let me know which topics you would like covered and I'll see if I can work them in. Thanks for the sub :)

[@kevin7manutd]

Awesome Work!!! Keep going!!!🙂

[@Magic-Smoke]

Thank you so much Kevin😁

[@meagrebones]

Interesting. I didn't know this existed. Great demonstration.

[@Magic-Smoke]

Thanks for watching @Graeme! It has a very bright future :)

[@HedroomMax]

Same here, thanks a lot John!

[@TOMTOM-nh3nl]

Thank You

[@Magic-Smoke]

Hello Tom! What are you planning to do with Rainmaker?

[@contalivreemaberto1385]

Excellent very educational video. Could you please make another one with the thermostat function. With DS18B20 and also with DHT11 I thank you in advance

[@Magic-Smoke]

Thanks Alberto! I have quite a few projects on the list but I'll add yours too!

[@cybergoofy23]

super video many thanks. Question, can you also host the Rainmaker server itself? especially for privacy reasons, that would be desirable.

[@Magic-Smoke]

Sadly not! For most of us, having the service hosted, is a benefit. If you have lots of private details, then should they be on the internet at all?

[@Yoimerable]

Amazing job!!. Have you thought about integrating that with AWS FreeRTOS ESP32?

[@Magic-Smoke]

There's so much to be done with Rainmaker, I hadn't even considered it :)

[@Yoimerable]

@@Magic-Smoke I am willing to cooperate. Let's just work together on this.

[@asierdanjou3905]

Is there any example that shows how to compile and flash this project with VSC ? Thank you.

[@Magic-Smoke]

I haven't done this personally but I have used VSC with the the Espressif platform many times. Just install the ESP IDF plugin in VSC

[@MrBobWareham]

I think this will kill IFTT, HA, BLYNK, in fack most others as it looks so easy

[@Magic-Smoke]

It really is easy - and one of the most impressive things I have found so far is how well written it is. It just works!

[@AbhishekSharma-nz7nz]

Hi, I want to create an app to control lights and iot devices,please contact if you are interested in this project,thanks.

[@Magic-Smoke]

‘IOT devices’ That’s quite a broad scope . It’s would be good to narrow i5 down to some requirements and then I may be able to point you in the right direction

[@jutgensw]

Your video is out of focus.

[@Magic-Smoke]

Thanks for reporting that Jurgens. Which part of the video please? The camera work or the screenshots?
