Life of a NodeMCU with Python!

Image
The inception of IOT in an engineer's life is probably with the word ESP8266 or NodeMCU or terrible and incomprehensible AT commands or just the word HARD! I have seen so many people including myself wanting to learn IOT with a wifi device like ESP8266 or nodeMCU but struggling after the first code! Frankly because the AT commands doesn't make any sense to me! (didn't at that time) When I wanted to start, I was given a bunch of codes in Arduino and a serial circuit connection from Arduino Uno to nodeMCU board and not surprisingly most of the code didn’t even make sense! Seeing this beautiful little piece with me always made me think, wouldn’t it be awesome if I can code it in Arduino or c++ or python and just upload it like Arduino? I mean it has GPIO pins, Serial, I2C and SPI pins and a micro usb port and on top of that it has flash just like Arduino(s). Well it turns out that I was right and there are many methods to program a nodeMCU board excep

Does English have a role in our personality?

 Hey! Ever wondered how you would see yourself as a third person? Imagine if every night you have the power to go back in time (for a day) and observe yourself for the whole day, your each action, your each conversation, each interaction, every little problem and the way you face them.  Won’t it be cool? It would then be easier to correct ourselves and be a better person everyday. *Well here’s a tip!* Do this every night before you sleep and just after closing your eyes and viola you will have a better way to monitor your personality .  That person you see right there is a peer reflection of your personality. Yes, I know everyone had lot of talks and discussion about personality development and stuff like that....believe me I am not sticking that kind of crap to your face.  Well, what I am interested in is what actually affects the personality development. Is English as a language necessary to build up a good personality? ...And stuff like that. It’s not been long that I overhe

How to write your own Library in Arduino?

Hello, Everyone! Well, I hope if you are here then either you are my friend or have a comfortable hand on Arduino and want to dive deeper or...you just got trapped by the google ads and search result 😉 Anyhow, once you are here I promise this post would be worth of your time. SO, the big question is.. “ is it difficult?” “Will it take a lot of time?” “Do I need to know a lot of programming?”... “and which language?” .........and.. Wait.. I am just gonna stop you there because if, by any chance, you ran through my last blog then you would know how hard it is to start anything! But we won’t let that come in our way and start right now..ah! Yes after answering those questions first. No,It’s not difficult. It will take 1 blog to make one of your own library ready and working. As for language you need to be a beginner in C++ or Just bear with me! It’s not on the language to stop your creativity, if you want it you can make it. So, Let’s start.. The result of our e

Let's Begin Now!!

The tittle of this post itself triggers so many questions...What? Why? Why now? etc. etc. This is true not only for this post but for almost everything that you might want to start in your life. The instantiation of an idea is fairly easy compared to the grit needed to visualize and then realize it. "Ideas"...Let's talk about ideas for a minute. If you  are an engineer in a hostel room you will probably never run of ideas. From every discussion to argument, from egoist bets to unfaithful promises ideas are what we joke about! Yes, it's true that our ideas faint with our laughs and then we have this thought in mind that "Yup, good idea but is it worth?" ....and there goes all our confidence. Now, IF we ever mange to restore even 10% of the confidence then we have our beloved friends to handle it and it's no second guessing to the fact that your ideas have now been evaluated to earth. In years to come we will again think of the idea, smil
