ESP32 Home Automation Platform in 4 steps

In this video we will build a home automation system with ESP32’s and a Windows PC in 4 steps: 1.Node Red GUI 2.Mosquitto MQTT Server 3.ESP32 and Software 4.Power On and Test …and connect a 2nd ESP32 client! And I will show how to add a 2ns ESP32 node We will build up the system step by step and verify the function after each step. For this project you need a ESP32, a 10k potentiometer and a Windows PC. (no Raspberry Pi needed).
