Arduino on ESP8266

Arduino/ESP8266: Fetching data to Server (LOCAL and Online) using WifiClient on from the ESP8266 module using Arduino IDE. The chip first came to the attention of western makers in August 2014 with the ESP-01 module, made by a third-party manufacturer, AI-Thinker. This small module allows microcontrollers to connect to a Wi-Fi network and make simple TCP/IP connections using Hayes-style commands. However, at the time there was almost no English-language documentation on the chip and the commands it accepted.The very low price and the fact that there were very few external…
