How to wire two Arduino MCUs as master/slave via SPI and transfer useful data (e.g. sensor readings >1 Byte) from the slave to the master.

Kiwi is a Nerves-based firmware for the Pimoroni Keybow that enables the device to connect via WiFi and control other devices and services through customizable API calls.
