Multi-channel remote control using the ESP8266

Ive been searching for a remote control system using the ESP8266 that will work with my Philips Hue hub and the Amazon Echo system for remotely switching appliances or the heating on and off.

I recently bought off ebay, a remote control system with 5 channels and 5 power socket adaptors. The remote control which works on 433 Mhz has an on and an off switch for each channel.

What i am looking for is a project that could be adapted to give 5 on channels and 5 off channels to drive relays and connect this project to the 10 buttons on the remote, i would like it to be controlled by the Amazon Echo.

Im very experienced in electronics, but zero experience with the ESP8266 or Arduino''s could anyone help?

Search for "esp8266 433mhz" or "arduino 433mhz" and you will find tons of projects to send commands from a micro-controller directly to the power sockets.
