ESP8266 Community Forum

The first project that came to mind when I came across the ESP8266 was to move my antenna and house speakers switch control from being run by a RaspberryPi board and an 8 relay board, which makes the project pass the 100 dollar mark, to being controlled itself by a wifi board that can be programmed. Well, the ESP8266 was the solution for me, and cheap! I describe the project in 2 parts, the first part is published on my blog http://www.horaciobouzas.com
The 1st part explains how to get setup and how to write and load firmware using LUA; a simple example of a GPIO0 blinker with GPIO2 signal reset is described. On part 2 I will fully describe how to set it up so SSID and password can be configured directly from a web browser without ever connecting the module to a USB serial, making it really flexible.On part 2 I will also show tan iPhone app that controls the board.
Send me feedback or ask questions!
Enjoy

Web setup would indeed make a worthwhile blog. Looking forward to it.

Thanks for doing such great work, Could you post here the init.lua file that you created as I visited your blog and found the code in there but I think it's not written compatible with LUA uploader.
Keep up the good work.
