NodeMCU is very popular in Home Automation. It’s WiFi capabilities and Arduino IDE support making it easier for IoT Applications. It is very tiny and has many Digital I/O pins, Serial Communication and I2C Communication. NodeMCU has a micro USB port to program it using your existing mobile cable (no additional programmer needed). There is a successor called ESP32 Development board which has more Analog pins and Digital pins. You can use any one of them for this project according to your requirements. Here we will be using NodeMCU.
Blynk is a mobile application which has its own server to process user requests. It is an open source application and anybody can use it in their Home Automation to control devices, monitor sensor data and get a notification by some trigger actions. It has a nice GUI with Graphs, Timers, Slider, Joystick and even Video Streaming. You can also make your own app and publish it in Google play store.

*************************************************************
This example runs directly on NodeMCU.
Note: This requires ESP8266 support package:
https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino
Please be sure to select the right NodeMCU module
in the Tools -> Board menu!
For advanced settings please follow ESP examples :
– ESP8266_Standalone_Manual_IP.ino
– ESP8266_Standalone_SmartConfig.ino
– ESP8266_Standalone_SSL.ino
Change WiFi ssid, pass, and Blynk auth token to run 🙂
Feel free to apply it to any other example. It’s simple!
