Welcome to the ESP8266-modular-network wiki!

The purpose of this Repository is to create a firmware for the esp8266 which will be able to:

• scan available networks
• recognise friendly networks
• be available as Access Point if no friendly network is available
• add a new network web interface when in AP mode
• discover other modules connected to the local area
• ask other modules what they can do
• register a list of modules
• provide a web interface where there is a list of links to other modules
• do something with the gpio using web buttons
• recover images and style from a module or a remote web server

Bonus points

• host names instead of IP (IPs are ugly ;P)
• a node already in the network can configure another new module
• a list of module functions can be retrieved from a remote server
• appealing and polished web pages
• background images in the pages
• modules can be taught what is their function(ex change a module "robot" to "single-motor") if code space is available(with 4Mb is feasible)
• crack strongest not friendly network(nah just kidding)
• order network based on strength of signal and connect with the strongest friendly
• ping google to check web connection, don't try to retrieve css or remote images if fails
• NTP time check
