In this project we are making WiFi based RGB LED Strip Controller using ESP8266 and Arduino IDE. First we make basic RGB LED Controller using NodeMCU to understand How to control RGB LED colors using PWM?. Then we make little advanced RGB LED Strip controller with easy to use color pallet selection user interface as shown below.

ESP8266 BMP180 pressure sensor interface
BMP180 is a Digital pressure sensor. In this tutorial we are interfacing BMP180 with ESP8266. Sensor have pressure range of 300 to 1100hPa and operate at 1.8V to 3.6V. It’s common application is Weather forecast.
ESP8266 weather station using Arduino IDE
Today we are making really cool weather station using ESP8266 (NodeMCU) and DHT11, rain sensor. In this project, we’ll learn how to make a DIY fully featured weather station using an ESP8266 and sensors. There are two types of weather station, one which is having own sensors and second type of weather station is where we pull data from the weather station servers. In this tutorial we are looking at both types of weather stations.
ESP8266 URL Encode Decode Example
In this tutorial we are looking at URL encoding and decoding in ESP8266 or NodeMCU. URL encoding converts characters into a format that can be transmitted over the Internet so that web browser can handle it. URL encoding is required when you send HTTP GET requests. Continue reading ESP8266 URL Encode Decode Example
ESP8266 Node MCU Handling HTML web forms data
In this tutorial we are getting data from web browser using HTML forms. ESP8266 is configured as server. When user clicks on button or text box data that we want to read it in ESP8266 (NodeMCU). This is we are demonstrating in example. before moving to ESP8266, let’s understand basics of HTML forms.
