Hey All,
I have been messing around with Arduino for a bit — mainly fun stuff like sensors, lights & small automation setups. I am thinking of stepping it up and connecting my Arduino projects to the web. I want to either monitor data from a remote location or trigger actions via the internet. I have read using ESP8266 or ESP32 boards for Wi-Fi but I am finding best way to make everything work smoothly.
Has anyone here built a simple system where Arduino talks to a web app or sends data to the cloud? I am open to ideas — even if it involves some backend work. I completed a Golang Course, so if anyone os used Go to build a server that interacts with Arduino, I want to hear how it went.
Any advice, lessons learned or project ideas would be awesome. I am trying to avoid beginner mistakes before diving deeper.
Thank you.
