🎙️ Talk: Presented at GDG DevFest Maceió 2017 – NodeMCU + Firebase
On September 23, 2017, I had the opportunity to speak at GDG DevFest Maceió, held at the Ritz Lagoa da Anta. My talk, titled “NodeMCU + Firebase: Simple and Fun IoT”, focused on integrating the ESP8266-based NodeMCU with Firebase to create real-time, cloud-connected hardware projects.
Talk Highlights
- Introduction to NodeMCU (ESP8266): Discussed its features, including 13 GPIOs, 1 PWM, and 1 ADC, operating at 3.3V.
- Firebase Integration: Demonstrated how to connect NodeMCU to Firebase using the Firebase Arduino library, enabling real-time database interactions.
- Practical Example: Showcased controlling an LED via Firebase, illustrating real-time data synchronization between hardware and the cloud.
- Setup and Code: Provided a walkthrough of the Arduino IDE setup and shared example code for attendees to experiment with.
