Embedded and IoT Systems with Nerves

Embedded and IoT Systems with Nerves: Build Reliable Edge Devices with Elixir, Circuits, and Real-World Hardware IntegrationsAre you ready to bring real intelligence to the edge? In a world where every device can sense, decide, and act, the real challenge isn't just connecting sensors or blinking LEDs-it's shipping hardware that thrives in the field, updates itself securely, and stays reliable through power cuts, flaky networks, and rapid changes. If you're looking to build edge devices that work just as hard as your code, this book will transform how you approach embedded and IoT development.Embedded and IoT Systems with Nerves strips away the old barriers of hardware engineering and delivers a practical, production-ready guide for developers who want to build, deploy, and maintain Elixir-powered devices at scale. Whether you're a hands-on engineer seeking robust firmware pipelines, or a cloud-native developer eager to break out of the server room, you'll discover proven techniques for connecting real hardware with real business value.What sets this book apart?- Step-by-step workflows for project setup, firmware builds, OTA updates, and device management-tested in real-world environments.- Clear explanations of interfacing with GPIO, I²C, SPI, and UART using the Circuits ecosystem, with annotated examples and field-proven best practices.- Practical guidance for integrating high-performance Rust NIFs, managing cellular and Wi-Fi networking, and orchestrating secure rollouts across diverse fleets.- In-depth case studies from telecom, energy, and mobility sectors that reveal exactly what works (and what to avoid) when your code leaves the desk and enters the wild.- Quick-reference tables, troubleshooting appendices, and annotated configuration files designed to keep you…
