Welcome back, friends!

In part 3 of the series, Microsoft Sr. Content Developer Cam Soper shows you how to use the pins on an single-board computer (like Raspberry Pi) to control external devices. Starting with the basics of the General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) header, Cam demonstrates how to use a breadboard and a GPIO breakout board to create a simple LED circuit. Then, using the .NET IoT Libraries, he shows how to blink the LED. After that, he takes it up a notch by demonstrating how to use a relay to control a larger device like a light bulb or a fan. Join Cam as he walks you through this IoT equivalent of "Hello, World!"
