An Esp8266 Nextion Scene controller??

I uploaded the latest version on oshpark

I'm a fan of scargill work. I saw this article a while ago but I didn't use ESP8266 at the time, so I didn't pay attention.
Now after several tests with ESP, I'm more interested in this PCB, but I can't find a link to oshpark in the article.
Can you provide a link please.:clap:

@fets Sure -> https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/UDRPebht

@alexsh1 Ha thanks for the osh link :). Saved me the trouble. I find myself building many similar projets and exploring similar avenues as Scargill.

Have to use my SMD workstation and go blind for this. But will try anyway.

@scalz : What software did you used to create these 3d pics of your board?
Thanks!

Hi @alexsh1 ,

did you finished your Enhanced Version? As i understood correctly the ESP8266 Board is used to send messages/touch commands over wifi - mqtt to a controller right? How it is programmed to send over mqtt?

So if i have this ESP - Board i do not need a arduino right?

Another question: Is it possible to run this board with a arduino pro mini or uno and nrf radio to send messages to my controller?

Thanks

As i see, i can also take some of this ESP-Boards right?

@artipi what is it you are trying to do?
You have to read more on the esp8266 forum.
There is a tool to upload binaries (it works on Windows 10) to esp8266. You have to compile binaries.

No, the board has not been designed to be run in the arduino environment. This is only esp8266.

@artipi no, for this board you only need esp-12

Thanks,

i try to make a small Wall scene controller that sends the commands to Domoticz over mqtt.
I ordered now the Nextion Display an thinking now to buy a WeMos D1 Mini Pro. Is that the right way?

I stumbled across this thread while searching for something related and thought I'd resurrect it to mention my HASwitchPlate project, which utilizes an ESP8266 as a MQTT-to-Nextion gateway to act as a wall-mounted scene controller. The project includes code for the ESP8266, Nextion, and home automation platforms including Home Assistant and OpenHAB. A PCB has been developed to allow running from AC power, and 3D-printable models are provided to mount the project into a single-gang work box common in North America.

The end result is a scene controller you can build yourself with all the necessary components (software, electronics, and physical enclosure) ready to download.
