I love these esp32 chips
They have WiFI and Bluetooth integrated and are about $6 a piece. Building an irrigation timer with a server with this one. I think I'm going to homemade a chicken egg hatcher also

Indeed. esp8266 and esp32 development boards are quite impressive! #grownostr #electronics #esp32
I have a couple of these laying around but haven't figured out what to do with them yet. Followed.
Interesting. I'm making an automatic chicken door. I planned on using a raspberry pi zero. Maybe I'll look into one of these.
It just depends. Generally my thoughts are if something needs to do a thing, use a micro controller. If it needs to do a thing and a thing and another thing or if you are doing something more resource intensive such as computer vision, use a micro computer. Esp32 is a micro controller but kinda in between in ways
That seems like good advice. A microcontroller is perfect for raising and lowering a door.
There is even a Nostr library for them https://github.com/lnbits/arduino-nostr
