My journey with esp32 and esp8266 NOOB-TO-INTERMEDIATE part- 1

Hi 👋🏻guys today I will tell you about my journey in the field of embedded systems and IoT ( Internet of Things). I started in this field because I find this interesting and cool. Like playing on hardware things, how hardware works internally and performing a user's task.

To enter this field I searched everywhere on the internet how can I get started in this, how could I build a robot or something😅? In this duration of searching, I found a very common name in the field of system programming or embedded systems world and that was #Arduino. Then I know we call them development boards and there is most common development boards are:- ESP32, NodeMCU 8266, Arduino UNO R3 and more like nano, mega etc..

Reading📖 about them I like the concept of development boards where Users can program them anyhow they want and get full access to the board, it helps in real projects where you can build whatever you like with these boards and most interestingly some boards are tiny, some have wifi and Bluetooth too. This is great.

In the electronics and robotics journey I started with esp32 and nodemcu8266 I learned about them how they work what protocols they use to communicate and much more about them. Then I got to know about sensors where you can buy a particular sensor according to your projects. There are many sensors like touch sensors, ultrasonic sensors, fingerprint sensors and many more they also have separate displays according to your preference and working. I will tell you more in the next post and this will be an interesting blog because I accidentally damaged my development board for 3 months and was unable to do my projects using them.

Summary - If anyone wants to start his/her journey in embedded systems, IoT or robotics I welcome you in these fields You will gain so much knowledge and building experience and find them fun and cool fields of the computer world and enjoy the experience.

Thanks for reading. See you in the next part.✌️
