ESP8266 IoT Temperature & Humidity Monitoring

ESP8266 IoT Temperature and Humidity Monitoring with KiwisIoT Introduction Have you ever wanted to monitor the temperature and humidity of a room remotely? In this project, I developed an IoT-based temperature and humidity monitoring system using an ESP8266 NodeMCU and a DHT11 sensor . The DHT11 sensor collects environmental data, and the ESP8266 sends the readings through Wi-Fi to the KiwisIoT…

This report details a project for monitoring temperature and humidity remotely using an ESP8266 NodeMCU and a DHT11 sensor. The system consists of three main components: the DHT11 sensor for measuring environmental data, the ESP8266 NodeMCU for reading sensor values and transmitting them via Wi-Fi, and the KiwisIoT Dashboard for displaying the received readings.

The project requires the ESP8266 NodeMCU, a DHT11 sensor, jumper wires, a USB cable, a computer, the Arduino IDE, the ESP8266 board package, the KiwisIoT Arduino library, the DHT sensor library, the Adafruit Unified Sensor library, and a KiwisIoT account with Wi-Fi connection. The Arduino code provided reads temperature and humidity from the DHT11 sensor and sends the values to the KiwisIoT Dashboard, which displays the data through two widgets: one for temperature and one for humidity.

Landing page builders don't make sense anymore

I build a product in this space, so read this with that in mind. I'll get to it at the end. For about fifteen years a landing page builder was the sensible way for a non-developer to put a page on the…

  • AI assistants can create landing pages in minutes, including design and content.
  • Hosting platforms like Vercel and Netlify are recommended over landing page builders.
  • Future of landing pages: AI handles design, content, hosting, and approval.

One codebase, two outputs: a zero-dependency static site and an Android app for Quran audio

I built a Quran audio project where the same JavaScript generates both a static website and an Android app, with no runtime dependencies in the generator.

  • Suwar codebase generates both static website and Android app without runtime dependencies
  • Fetch script validates Quran text integrity before generation, stops if incorrect
  • Android app includes audio player with repeat, speed control, sleep timer, and resume
