Most projects I do with the ESP8266 require an internet connection. If this would not be needed I would probably use something else like an Arduino for that project. Most of these Internet of Things (IoT) projects require a common set of functions to deal with for instance WiFi connections and HTTP(S) requests. For some of this I already have a few snippets of code, but these are neither robust nor elegant. Therefore I decided to develop a custom framework for the ESP8266. Here I will discuss its requirements.
