Hi,
I'm new on the Arduino world and I've recently started a project. I would like to send the data captured by some sensors to my PC via WIFI.
I bought an ESP8266 thinking that it would be for sending data from the Arduino to my PC. I've been searching for the code and all I see is people using this module for another purpose.
Any idea or suggestion?
Thank you so much!
have you tried this ?
you can tweak it a little to suit your need
your PC will connect to it as client, and poll data from it (using GET request ) say at every 5 seconds
you can make a windows app with processing IDE as well
Another way is to install a MQTT server on your PC.
A Google search for "ESP8266 MQTT" has lots of information including links to youtube tutorials.
All of this sounds very complicated for me....I thought it could be an easy programing substitute of the wire that conects from the PC to the Arduino. 
Thank you anyway!!!
