JavaScript beyond the web page
summary
JavaScript controls real devices: a phone speech API plus an Xandme bridge turn on a bubble machine via speech recognition and a Node/Express server using the Ninja Blocks node library actuates 433 MHz outlets control 433MHz power outlets with Ninja Blocks and Node/Express with commands triggered from Twitter streams, On.x events and Socket.IO slide gestures. Demos are intermittently flaky — bubble machine reliably runs, radio outlets sometimes miss signals — and example code is intentionally insecure so production needs authentication and rate limits.
