Help on an arduino project, please help!!

Hello everyone I hope you can read this post. I have to make a project in arduino and I am completely new on it what I have to do is connect a dust sensor DSM501A

and with arduino capture the measurements of dust in the environment, translate this measurements via WIFI to a Web browser and to a database. I additionally have to save this data in a SD Card.

Well I was reading that for the WIFI connection I have the posibbility of connecting a ESP8266 or a Arduino WIFI shield. Which one is most recommended?

For the SD card I can use the SD card module.

I need you to please tell me how should I proceed what do I have to do. How do I create the interface between the data of the arduino and the web page.
Please help me!
Best regards,
Sebastian

I have six months! for doing this it is my thesis project I study a mechatronics master. But I am a mechanical engineer and I don't have so much background in programming stuff. But well I am learning I already did all the basic tutorials of arduino and learned some stuff but for this I need more please help me!

You need to break your learning into small parts.

First become familiar with simple Arduino programming with the examples that come with the Arduino IDE.

Then write a short program to work with each part of your project on its own

  • read the dust sensor and display the data on the Arduino serial monitor
  • save a number to an SD card
  • send data to your web server
  • etc
    Don't try to unite these pieces until you know how to do them all separately.

read the sensor and display the data in the arduino monitor I already did that.
save things in a SD card I already did that too
send data to a web server I already managed to do that.
but my question is how for example I can collect data from the arduino and create graphics in a web page about this data. Let's say for example I collect data on my arduino about humidity and temperature and I want to display this in a web page in a graph that says temperature or himidity vs. time, and the tables. How can I do that?

That sounds like you want tuition in HTML (etc) programming. This is hardly the place to expect that?

You may be interested in my EzScrn demo which can graph data. I'm really thinking that you could take some ideas from it and use them in your own project.

Thank you brother I am gonna take a look at that right now

Now I have learned that I can store my data from the arduino to a MySQL data server, and from this I can send it to a web page.... Now how do I use the arduino, a wifi shield (or a ESP8266) to send the data from the arduino to the MySQL data base?? Any ideas?
