Après des années à utiliser HomeKit, j’ai profité d’un déménagement pour vérifier si l’herbe n’était pas plus verte ailleurs. Lassé des limites de la domotique d’Apple et du manque d’évolutions de l’application Maison, j’ai tenté ma chance avec Home Assistant, une solution open source concurrente qui s’installe sur un ordinateur chez soi et qui peut remplacer entièrement HomeKit, Google Home et les autres. Après quelques mois, je suis ravi de mon choix et réconcilié avec la domotique, que j’automatise de plus en plus. Est-ce toutefois la solution faite pour vous ? Comment fonctionne-t-elle ? C’est ce que nous verrons ensemble dans ce livre qui se veut aussi pratique possible, avec des explications complètes sur Home Assistant, de son installation initiale aux automatisations les plus complexes, en passant par la connexion des appareils connectés et la création des tableaux de bord pour les contrôler.  Bonne lecture ! |

Winner of the Publishing Innovation Award! "Dedicated to Steve Jobs, this self published book highlights much of what Jobs himself strove for - clear, crisp design, intuitive interface and user experience coupled with high quality, clear content." - Digital Book World "Most of the books I scanned, even the "Dummies" series, assumed a basic knowledge of computer programming even for iOS beginners. What I like about Kevin's writing is that he doesn't make any assumptions - he just takes you there - step by step." - Lorraine Akemann - Moms With Apps "Great for developers too! With this book, I finally understand the relationship between Xcode, Swift, Cocoa Framework, and the related Mac tips. If I don't get a concept, the video at the end of each chapter brings it all together. - Dan Neuman This first book in the series from Kevin McNeish, winner of the Publishing Innovation award, award-winning App Developer, highly acclaimed iOS trainer and conference speaker , is specifically designed to teach non-programmers how to create an App for the iPhone and iPad. Many books designed for the beginning Apple developer assume way too much. In contrast, this book series assumes you know nothing about programming. This first book is your "easy in" and builds confidence that you can write Apps for the iPhone and iPad. The entire book has been reviewed by people like you--with no experience in how to make an App. Diagrams were added and examples improved until all "beta readers" completely understood each key concept. Up to Date With the Latest Technologies The information in this book is up to date with the latest iOS technologies, including the iOS 9 and the latest version of Xcode . You will learn about storyboards, scenes, navigation, displaying lists of data, animating transitions between scenes, using maps, and much more. Includes Step-by-Step Instructional Videos! There are seven step-by-step instructional videos in which you watch the author create each part of the App. This is great for non-programmers who might need some extra help. About the Author Kevin McNeish is a featured writer and blogger for iPhoneLife magazine as well as author of the best-selling iOS App Development for Non-Programmers book series, winner of the prestigious Publishing Innovation Award . Kevin is creator of iOS apps including iElectionDay (awarded iPad App of the week) and is also Chief Software Architect of Oak Leaf Enterprises, Inc. He has a knack for explaining difficult concepts in a way that you can truly understand. Kevin is a well-known speaker and trainer throughout North America and abroad including conferences such appsworld, MobileConnections, DevConnections, MobileTeach as well as numerous Code Camps and software developer groups.

In today’s market, where rival web services compete for attention, a well-designed REST API is a must-have feature. This concise book presents a set of API design rules, drawn primarily from best practices that stick close to the Web’s REST architectural style. Along with rules for URI design and HTTP use, you’ll learn guidelines for media types and representational forms. REST APIs are ubiquitous, but few of them follow a consistent design methodology. Using these simple rules, you will design web service APIs that adhere to recognized web standards. To assist you, author Mark Massé introduces the Web Resource Modeling Language (WRML), a conceptual framework he created for the design and implementation of REST APIs. Learn design rules for addressing resources with URIsApply design principles to HTTP’s request methods and response status codesWork with guidelines for conveying metadata through HTTP headers and media typesGet design tips to address the needs of client programs, including the special needs of browser-based JavaScript clientsUnderstand why REST APIs should be designed and configured, not coded |
