Official .NET libraries (System.Device.Gpio and Iot.Device.Bindings) for building IoT applications that interact with GPIO pins, serial ports, sensors, displays, and boards like Raspberry Pi. It provides a growing set of community-maintained device bindings for IoT components.

Use cases

  • control gpio pins from a .net application on raspberry pi
  • read temperature sensor data in c#
  • drive an lcd display from .net
  • communicate with an arduino over serial
  • build iot apps with single-board computers using c#
  • monitor cpu temperature and hardware sensors from .net

When to choose

  • you develop in C#/.NET and need to interface with GPIO, SPI, I2C, or serial hardware
  • you want community-maintained bindings for common sensors, displays, and boards
  • you target Raspberry Pi or similar single-board computers with .NET

When to avoid

  • you need microcontroller (MCU) deployment - use .NET nanoFramework instead
  • you require fully stable APIs - the repo is still in experimental stage with APIs subject to change
  • your project is not on the .NET platform
