Using GPIO on the Nvidia Jetson Nano using NodeRED

Based on Matthew’s prodding[1] I’m proposing an article I’m willing to author on installing Fedora[2] on the Nvidia Jetson Nano and using NodeRED to program the GPIO[3] similar to what is often done on Rpi’s.

I actually had to end up forking[4] the node-red-node-pi-gpio module to get things working and it was not a small amount of work, although a lot of it was teaching myself JavaScript and how NodeRED interacts. It’s still a proof-of-concept right now but NodeRED seems to be happy with it.

Thanks,
Richard
