Intro

The Handy SDK is a great way to create powerful integrated projects in a short time. In this tutorial, we will make the Handy move to one position then another after 5 seconds using Handy Direct Streaming Protocol (HDSP).

We will use webpack to compile our project and lodash to get it working on a browser.
