IoT Tutorial environment setup

This tutorial will walk you through setting up the sample IoT dashboard, explain the architecture behind the app, and describe how you could use the same principles for your own IoT use cases.  The IoT Dashboard is designed as a canned demo using JavaScript ‘simulators’ to mimic real-world devices but this tutorial will also explain how to add real devices communicating over MQTT.  The IoT dashboard can be found on Github at https://github.com/PubNubDevelopers/iot-dashboard-javascript-demo
