How to create a node.js server and send live data from Arduino Port to it

Projects Programming

Hi everyone,

I would like to achieve something similar to this video:

I would also like to add information about soil humidity. I would like to turn the data into a nice graph that will be displayed on the node.js local server. I was thinking about using the library "Johnny-five" and the graphing library "Plotly".

However, I don't know much about javascript let alone node.js. I only have some basic HTML/CSS background... I only know how to make an index.js (the line const five = require('johnny-five')and package.json file :grinning:

I find it difficult to find some tutorials to achieve this kind of results. Any hints or tips, or if someone could break this into smaller steps would be nice.

Thanks^^

Setting up a node.js server is NOT an Arduino issue.
