JavaScript and app.js

app.js is a JavaScript library that provides programmatic control of an AppShed app. This lesson aims to bring learners up to speed with the ever-changing nature of programming. App.js can also be used to integrate apps with IoT & robotics (Arduino/Raspberry Pi), suitable for classroom or robotics clubs.
