Python can be used to connect IoT devices to the web. Pyaiot was created to allow a web application to communicate with constrained IoT devices using various protocols like CoAP and MQTT. It uses a modular design with multiple protocols and is open-source. Asyncio and Tornado were used to build services that integrate CoAP and MQTT support to enable real-time bidirectional communication between devices and a web dashboard. While asyncio simplified development, some Python version issues had to be overcome.
