Hello everyone!
I got my hands on a pair of ESP8266 03 boards. I managed to connect them, flash two different firmwares (newest AT and http server) and now I want too write a simple REST oriented client on my own. The problem is, that I can find a lot of code examples, but I can't find any documentation for the API itself. It looks similar to POSIX C, but not exactly the same.
Where should I start learning the espressif's API? I read that it's a version of RTOS - is RTOS a good place to start? And what about espressif's extensions and libs?
Especially, I want to focus on some topics important to sensor networks, like:
1) establishing wi-fi and than TCP connection
2) power management and saving - sleep and waking up on timer / interrupt
3) power source monitoring - measure the input voltage level (I read that the chip has internal D/A converter, but how to use it)?
I'll very happy if someone can point me in the right direction
