Fun with Binary

2018

(c) Diogo Cordeiro

This is the README file for Fun with Binary, an app to help introducing students how binary numbers work.

Further information about Fun with Binary can be found in the project home page:

https://www.diogo.site/projects/fun_with_binary/

Getting Started

Fun with Binary has two different modes:

Prerequisites

Offline Mode

There are no special prerequisites for the offline mode.

Online Mode

At least: Arduino Uno with ESP8266-01, 6 leds (and 6 resistors), wires, breadboard.

Some instruction of how to build it can be found on my blog post about this project: https://blog.diogo.site/posts/fun-with-binary

I use SemVer for versioning. For the versions available, see the tags on this repository.

New this version

This is version 2.0 of Fun with Binary and includes the following (key) changes from the previous one:

  • Client <-> Server <-> Arduino was replaced by a Client <-> Arduino structure
  • ESP8266 is now required for Access Point purposes
  • Both modes have become PHP independent (mostly relevant in the offline one)

The last release, 2.0, gave us these improvements:

  • Significant visual improvement
  • 2 Powers Label switch functionality
  • Offline mode is now lighter and more portable (no computer with webserver required anymore)
