A web dashboard for the Enviro Plus Raspberry Pi HAT #PiDay @Raspberry_Pi @EddieSneed66

Ed writes in to Adafruit:

Over the past month or so, I decided to get back to working on a contribution project for the Pimoroni Enviro Plus Raspberry Pi HAT. I had already made a pull request over a year ago for a simple command line application for sending sensor data to an Adafruit IO dashboard, and thought it was about time to contribute something that was a step up from a lot of other examples I regularly see.

I decided to create a ReactJS web UI utilizing a Python (Flask) based backend for easy communication with the HAT. The project offers both new and experienced users a change of pace and template for more complex dashboard-like projects where multiple language components can be use to create something really awesome for such a tiny power-house! The ‘screenshots’ folder of the repo has a nice little image of the dashboard running on a Pi, and I’ll be adding a supplement image of the backside of the enclosure tonight.

I think it would be a great inspiration for future projects!
