esp8266 with Arduino cloud

Other Hardware Home Automation

Hello friends
I'm interested in using the esp8266 module with Arduino Cloud.
But Arduino Cloud does not support ESP8266
What is your solution?

The source code is available at GitHub - arduino-libraries/ArduinoCloud: Easly connect your Arduino/Genuino board to the Arduino Cloud so if you are a skilled programmer you may be able to develop a version that works on ESP8266. Its using MQTT as its communication protocol and there is a working MQTT client for ESP8266 at GitHub - knolleary/pubsubclient: A client library for the Arduino Ethernet Shield that provides support for MQTT..

However this is not a beginners project- you may be better off with a different service that already supports ESP8266 eg https://arest.io/esp8266-cloud (I just found that in a google search, I've never used it)

I've used aREST.io before and it's a good platform to use and very easy to implement. You can find example code on Github here.
