| As Bash scripting is well covered by many manuals for Linux, in the following chapters, we focus on two others: Python and C#. Moreover, accessing the GPIO in the case of the bash requires installing external tools; thus, it does not apply to IoT programming straightforwardly but rather as a supplementary tool to automate tasks other than core programming. | As Bash scripting is well covered by many manuals for Linux, in the following chapters, we focus on two others: Python and C#.
