This module can run Node-RED on IoT Edge.

Node-RED is a programming tool for wiring together hardware devices, APIs and online services in new and interesting ways. It provides a browser-based editor that makes it easy to wire together flows using the wide range of nodes in the palette that can be deployed to its runtime in a single-click.

By connecting to Azure IoT Edge and operating the Node-RED flows, it will be possible to easily communicate with the cloud on both sides.

This module can be used with the Azure cloud native application WeDX Flow to simplify module management.

Minimum hardware requirements: Linux x64, arm64 and arm32 OS, 1GB of RAM, 600Mb of storage
