Fully HW Accelerated, the Raspberry Pi can manage its I/O via johnny-five and raspi-io directly from an Electron instance. (Read Documentation)
A Web Kiosk Bootstrap
B.E.N.J.A. is an installer that makes you focus on what matters: developing amazing projects!
You don't need to know much about Linux, it's already prepared for you.
You don't need to configure drivers or UI: it's a Plug & Make
micro SD card.
You can edit a project remotely, or directly on your computer and can make it portable simply copying it around.
An Inter-Web of Things
Differently from every other platform,
B.E.N.J.A. provides a way for makers to create via Web interface.
Switch on the light, check humidity, temperature,
make the coffee, spy your cat, and show him your face on TV,
there's no limit in what you could do through a privileged Web view!
Beyond the Web
The B.E.N.J.A. environment doesn't have usual Web constrains:
you have full Hardware access as well as all Operating System features!
It's NodeJS on top of Linux, delivered through an Electron instance
that runs on ab hardware accelerated Xorg.
