In this chapter, we will be continuing to build BigProject, so you will need to refer to your work from Chapter 7, Adding More Features. You will also need your Target as we will be running code on it.
We also will be using the Raspberry Pi Sense HAT as we learn about Qt Sensor support.
Since we will be working with a weather API in this chapter, you will want to obtain a free API ID for OpenWeatherMap.org. Follow the instructions at https://openweathermap.org/appid to get a free API ID. We will only be using free features.
The source code for BigProject and other solutions in this chapter can be found on GitHub at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Hands-On-Embedded-Programming-with-Qt/tree/master/Chapter09.
