The purpose of this code is to provide an example of how to connect an esp8266 microcontroller to a pc via python in a very simple way, using only the python socket library, which is built-in.

This project contains ESP8266 and Python connection via socket library. In ESP8266 Arduino sketch there is a function called "espSetup()". When this function called, it will set all settings for ...

On the ESP8266, because it’s all in Python, the code is similar. In fact, the same basic code would work between two computers running vanilla Python just as well as the ESP8266 running MicroPython.
