For over two decades, microcontrollers have begun to take control over most of the activities that can be described by algorithms, and will become more and more indispensable - they are here to stay. Incorporating all the blocks needed to run any algorithm, microcontrollers gain, by software, an increasing amount of intelligence.Our problem is that all these microcontrollers do not actually have their own intelligence, but they include a part of that of the man's who is writing in t...

This book gives you practical and fully functional solutions, in the form of complete programs. We start with simple projects, and gradually add extensions so that finally some very elaborated tasks are achieved, following one of the essential paradigms of programming: 'Keep i(o)t simple.' We cover the most used technologies for the Internet of Things and emphasize their various advantages and disadvantages. All the programs presented here have been verified by third parties, who have prov...

It is estimated that trillions of devices will be interconnected over the next decade through the Internet of Things, demanding a huge effort from developers. The emergence of low-cost Espressif microcontrollers, with WiFi connectivity, allows independent developers to quickly become part of this process. This book is not intended to comprehensively teach you the theory, but to give you practical and fully functional solutions, in the form of complete programs. Much of the theory is alread...
