# Ported "RESTuino" that flickers LED with RESTfull API to Raspberry Pico

> RESTuino aims to provide a unified API as a layer above hardware abstraction layers such as Arduino, mbed, and MicroPython.

RESTuino is an open-source hardware and software project that aims to provide a simple way to create Internet of Things (IoT) devices with a RESTful API. It combines the simplicity of the Arduino platform with the power of RESTful APIs to create a platform that can be used to build web-connected devices easily.

RESTuino is built on top of the Arduino platform, which is a popular open-source hardware and software ecosystem used for building electronic projects. It uses an Ethernet shield or WiFi module to connect the Arduino board to the Internet, allowing it to communicate with other devices over the network.

RESTuino provides a RESTful API that can be accessed over HTTP, allowing web applications to interact with the Arduino board and control its inputs and outputs. This makes it possible to build web-connected devices that can be controlled and monitored from anywhere in the world.

RESTuino is designed to be easy to use, even for those who are new to electronics or programming. It includes a set of example projects and documentation to help users get started quickly. It also provides a web-based configuration tool that can be used to configure the network settings and API endpoints of the device without requiring any programming.

Overall, RESTuino is a powerful platform for building web-connected devices with a RESTful API, and it is well-suited for a wide range of IoT projects.

The author briefly describes its advantages as follows.

- Since it is HTTP communication, if you have touched software, you will mostly touch it.

- GPIO can be rearranged ideologically.

- No development computer is needed.

The author said the RESTuino is really easy because you can do anything with CURL, as seen in the gif below.

The author ported it to Raspberry Pi Pico and used W5100S-EVB-Pico, already bought at switch-science.

The author felt that the W5100S-EVB-Pico was easy to use because the W5100S-EVB-Pico is compatible with the Arduino Ethernet Shield.
