002 – MicroPython TechNotes: Introduction for Gorillacell ESP32 Dev Kit

Gorillacell ESP32 development kit provides many hours of fun tinkering with an unlimited materials you can easily use. The ESP32 shield provides extension for ESP32 pins to the color coded pin headers which helps in avoiding confusion when experimenting. Color coding should be black for the grounds, red for the VCC, and yellow for the control signal pins.

Reyax MQTT with Database: Exploring RYC1001 with MicroPython | Part 2

Recently, I created a blog post introducing the new Reyax RYC1001 IoT cloud platform. Unlike its competitors, RYC1001 provides additional database capability on top of its MQTT server. I only use free applications available in the internet for Windows and for android. I played with it and I find it easy to use so I decided to further explore the RYC1001 but this time using actual devices to simulate a home automation.
