Tutorials, APIs, Wikis, Oh My!

[Jeff Eberl]

In addition to the usually friendly, usually correct, and usually prompt advice you get here are the ioio-user group, here are some places for ioio users to find information.

Start with the Wiki.
It has critical information about the hardware, as well as descriptions of the different features of the IOIO.

IOIO Book: "Making Android Accessories with IOIO" by Simon Monk.
"The book is very well-written. First, the choice of projects is very well thought out: starting with simple ones and moving on to more complicated ones. The projects also make good use of the fact that an Android phone is part of the setup and can be used for user interface, sensors, connectivity, etc. Second, the projects are very well documented and explained. It is very clear that the author understands the technology really well and finds the right way to transfer this understanding to the reader." -- Ytai
