The challenges include creating apps on the Raspberry Pi, creating a REST API with ASP.NET 5 and Entity Framework for database access, Website Development with SignalR for real-time communication between the Web browser and API, and Hosting in the Cloud with Microsoft Azure. Come, learn, create and meet fellow peers!
