Chapter 9: Creating a ToDo Application with Node-RED

In this chapter, we are going to create a simple ToDo application in Node-RED. This is simple and straightforward and is a good tutorial on creating an application (flow) in Node-RED. We are going to use the project feature explained in the previous chapter, so this chapter will also double as a review of that function.

Let's get started with the following four topics:

  • Why you should use Node-RED for web applications
  • Creating a database
  • How to connect to a database
  • Running the application

By the end of this chapter, you will have mastered how to make a simple web application with a database on Node-RED.
