Getting ready

You will need the following hardware components for this project:

  • Two ESP8266 boards
  • Two USB cables
  • 220 Ω resistor
  • LED
  • Momentary Push button
  • 10 kΩ resistor

Connect a Push button and a 10 kΩ pull up resistor to the GPIO2 pin. The Push button will be used as an input. This ESP8266 board will be configured as the client. The setup is shown in the following figure:

For the second ESP8266, connect ...
