by Marco Schwartz

Build exciting Internet of Things (IoT) projects using the ESP8266 WiFi chip!

The ESP8266 is a small, low-cost and low-power WiFi chip that received a lot of interest from the DIY & makers community when it was released. This little WiFi chip only costs $5, and comes with an onboard processor, which makes it the ideal chip to build open-source Internet of Things projects.

In this book, you will learn how to use the ESP8266 WiFi chip for several Internet of Things projects. For example, you will learn how to create a data logger that will send data to the cloud. We are also going to learn how to control a lamp from anywhere in the world using the MQTT protocol. 

Here is a non-exhaustive list of what you will be able to do after using this book:
Log data in the cloud using Dweet.io & Freeboard.io along with the ESP8266  Control a lamp from anywhere in the world using the ESP8266  Create an Internet of Things dashboard to control all your ESP8266 projects
