Raptorbox is a complete open-source solution for Rapid Prototyping of application for the Internet of Things (IoT) with a beautiful graphical user interface that enables the user to have a concrete view of the platform.
It is composed of a set of Restful HTTP APIs and an MQTT broker to create a reactive stream of data and action triggers for your devices. Its GUI enables users with better management and complete view of your devices with the data.
Raptorbox is equipped with node-red to enable rapid decision logic based on data and effective actions on devices.
Raptor requires a minimum of 4GB of RAM to run slightly.
