Qwik & Arduino with Johnny Five
Some times ago I have played with johnny-five, a JavaScript Robotics & IoT platform. In short words, we can communicate with our Arduino or Raspberry by using JavaScript with a very friendly syntax.

Dockerize Javascript IOT Applications
The library Johnny-Five is a Javascript library that allows you to control Arduino and other microcontrollers using Javascript. It is very easy to use and it has a lot of examples that you can use to learn how to use it.

Is there a differnece if I program the Arduino using NodeJS instead of it language c/c++
+Here is the platform used to program the board http://johnny-five.io/
- Arduino to PC Serial Protocol Library

From Wi-Fi to Li-Fi, sending data via light using Arduino and JavaScript
I decided to use the Johnny-Five JavaScript framework for this. After installing it , I started by declaring a few variables and instantiating the transmitter board.

Guide please🙏i will really mean a lot.
IOT is the internet of things. That loosely means - interconnected devices that aren't your standard "computer." You can totally do that with JS and a little computer like an Arduino. You can use https://johnny-five.io/ or something... but I'm talking about - a year from now -

help - Cannot figure out why I keep getting SyntaxError: Unexpected token {

JS Library for controlling devices with cameras
Johnny Five seems like a neat project for that bit. What I'm trying to find is a library for using the camera bit. Sorry if my original question wasn't specific enough. I'll try to clarify here.

Firmata on ESP32 (WROOM)
I am trying to put Firmata on ESP32 and connect it to the johnny-five lib (or any other JS client). I managed to put official Firmata and other forks related to ESP32, but it doesn't work (build+upload succeed), but I'm getting "ready" from the device.

WebAssembly+WebUSB port of the SANE scanner library
Browser ports can't integrate at OS level, they're intentionally separated today, but given that e.g. Node.js has WebUSB support (https://github.com/node-usb/node-usb), I guess you could make a layer that exposes such Wasm drivers as native to the OS. Could be a fun experiment.

Using usb-detection with electron v4 on intel mac
I'd recommend https://github.com/node-usb/node-usb instead of usb-detection, it has hot plug events available and is better maintained. It uses NAPI for its addons so they don't need to be rebuilt per Electron version, and more helpfully, you can run tests in NodeJS and then bundle it for Electron and you don't need to rebuild the module between each.

Trying to get access to the USB device in Electron app
We use node-usb for USB hotplug detection, and rerun the serial poll, diffing the output with the ID information from node-usb to produce reliable device hinting.

Usb devices on Go
I want to work with usb devices in Go, On linux i just have to install libsub, But on windows i have to install a lot of building tools, some times it doesn't work properly! I just want to install WinUSB drivers like https://github.com/node-usb/node-usb did! (it's a corossplatform usb support on javascript node)
What are some alternatives?
When comparing johnny-five and usb you can also consider the following projects:
