[Work in Progress] Building an IoT Web Interface with Zephyr OS and Next.js
I'm currently working on a detailed article that will explain how to create an IoT web interface using:
- Zephyr OS for the embedded system
- Next.js for the web interface
- A modern and secure architecture
In this article, we'll explore:
System Architecture
- Using Zephyr RTOS with C++17 for embedded systems
- Redis integration for data persistence
- WebSocket server setup for real-time updates
- REST API implementation with HTTP gateway
- Modern web interface development with Next.js 15
Technical Deep Dive
- Modern C++ programming in embedded context
- Real-time timers and threads implementation
- Network communication via sockets
- React Server Components and App Router usage
- TypeScript and Tailwind CSS integration
- Real-time communication via WebSocket
Development Environment
- Docker containerization
- Consistent development environment setup
- Logging and monitoring management
The source code of the project that will be detailed in this article is already available on GitHub: Traffic Lights. This project demonstrates a complete implementation of the integration between Zephyr OS and a web interface.
If you're eager to see a concrete example, you can directly check out the repository: https://github.com/offroadlabs/traffic-lights/
Stay tuned for the complete article!
