Our main objective is to focus over IOT (Internet of Things ) as it the most reliable as well as simpler source to connect two or more devices.Also on how to use basic chips such as ESP 8266 WI-FI Module , WEMOS D1 R2 and a glimpse of connections (pin - pin) and learning more about relay board and its working. So lets get started. Step 1 : Circuit Components 1. Esp8266 WIFI (Nodemcu) / WEMOS D1 R2 2. 5v supply 3. Charger and Charger Wire 4. Jumper wires 5. Smart phone with BLYNK app installed
