http://dweet.io can give you a rest endpoint. It is very easy and open source


Correct me if I'm wrong, but Dweet doesn't really solve the use case of "I want to connect my hobby app with existing third-party APIs without having to do manual integrations". It's great for home IoT setups, sure, but that's not the main use case I care about.


This, dweet is a nice solution here.


Thank you for the follow up post!

I've been using Dweet for some time on a lot of different fun and hacky projects, I just wanted to say good job!


Thank you for the support!


We are back up and running! Please let us know what you think.


Apologies, server is getting crushed! We will be back up soon.


Great write up! We found many of the same issues as you did when we tried connecting devices, so we created dweet.io.

We are not a substitute for MQTT, but we made dweet to help you get your things online quickly and easily so you can concentrate on making apps. Standards take forever to hash out, so we made something that can get you going really quickly.

Have you had a chance to look into dweet? https://dweet.io is the homepage, so let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you again


This comment's sales pitch tone really comes to a crescendo around "Have you had a chance to look into dweet?", just FYI you may want to avoid this type of language in the future.


So what's wrong with that? He built a service and he's suggesting that someone who might have an interest take a look at it.

"Build stuff, tell people about it."

Freeboard is in public beta right now and there is no charge. We will post price information soon, and we will always have a free option, like dweet.io.

All current functionality will remain free. New functionality that we end up building may fall into a paid category.


Hi, you can try it out directly from the freeboard.io website. Just click on Start Now right on the front page!


I already tried it thanks, I want to know what it would take to install and play with the (open source) code


Check the repository again. I just updated the Readme.md to add some more docs on loading and creating plugins. Let me know if this helps. Thanks!


yes, it does help, everything's JS, I wasn't going crazy


Yeah it's 100% client side.


We appreciate the thought and will consider that. By the way, our examples are all live devices dweeting their data right now.
