2. TP Link router

3. any smartphone ( i used iphone 5c)

Get Wemos D1 Mini Ready

1. Get Arduino IDE esp8266 extension ( there are lots of tutorials.. just google)

2. we will be using in built LED .. so no additional connections

Upload This Code to D1 Mini

Downloads

Set Up Port Forwarding on Router

Download Apps From Appstore on Your Phone

just open up the speaktoit Assistant app and say " switch On Lights of Backroom" .. there Wemos in built LED should turn on.
