Many people recognize Apache Cordova for the core features it provides that allow mobile developers to create hybrid mobile applications using their favorite web technologies: html, css, and JavaScript. The ecosystem behind the Cordova community is growing rapidly. Companies and individual contributors are creating 3rd party Cordova plugins that are shared with developers on the Cordova plugins site. This talk will showcase one such plugin, Cordova's bluetooth plugin, and how it can be leveraged to connect a hybrid app over bluetooth to an arduino to control the individually addressable led's of a Neopixel Matrix. The power of web standards expanded to a physical hardware device.
