A digital twin that doesn't move is useless. Meijers provides step-by-step code snippets showing how to use an to listen to IoT Hub telemetry and patch twin properties in real-time. He emphasizes the "computation on the graph" pattern, where logic is executed on the twin side, not just the device side.
