qdi-esp32 – Quick and Dirty Interface for ESP32 Prototypes

qdi-esp32 – Quick and Dirty Interface for ESP32 Prototypes – because sometimes you just need to get things working without overengineering. This project is a barebones template that lets your ESP32 serve up a simple web UI with minimal fuss.

Perfect for rapid prototyping, hardware hacking, or impressing your friends with a Wi-Fi-enabled LED toggle. No dependency hell – just raw HTML, a pinch of JavaScript, and your ESP32 doing what it does best.

✨ Features

• Built-in Web Interface: Serves static HTML, CSS, and JS directly from the ESP32 using SPIFFS.
• No External Dependencies: Pure browser-native code – because simple is sexy.
• Wi-Fi Access Point Mode: Your ESP32 becomes its own hotspot. No router? No problem.
• Quick and Dirty by Design: Get it running fast, tweak as you go, and clean it up later (or not).
