Let's look at Resin.io screens....

The way Resin.io works is that it needs two ingredients:
  1. Some code - which I'll give you
  2. Some variables - which only you know

We'll get to the code. But let's first talk about these variables.

Variables are in two forms:
  1. Per application
  2. Per device

If you only have one Raspberry Pi, this really doesn't make much difference. But the secondary goal of Resin.io is that it makes running one device as easy as running a thousand. I have five Raspberry Pi's and want to run them in many locations, so I have variables per device. But I digress....
  • Click on your application. You will see a list of the single device (or many devices) here. Everything in this window is for all devices, including "Environmental Variables".


  • Click your device. Here is where you will eventually see the output from your device.


  • Click "Environmental Variables"


  • This is the main window that you will use to set major variables. Keep this link front of mind ready for the next step.
