Hello guys, In this post we learn how to make web server using nodemcu/esp8266 in easy way.
Let start it:-
*Parts Required
1.Nodemcu/esp8266
2.Led(5mmm 3v)
*Schematics and diagram
-Connect led with gpio pins(5,4,2).
-And do all the connection according to this diagram
*Codes
-Copy The following code in ardunio ide

*How to Use
-After uploading the code to your ESP8266, open the Serial Monitor at a baud rate of 115200. Press the on-board RST/EN button. You should get its IP address.
Open a browser and type the ESP IP address. You’ll get access to a similar web page.
-Press the toggle buttons to control the ESP GPIOs. At the same time, you should get the following messages in the Serial Monitor to help you debug your code.
-Enjoy.
