Getting started

In this section you will learn what unicontrol is, principles of how it works, how to access it in the beginning and how it can be integrated into virtually any home or industrial automation project.

From the hardware options perspective you will find out what the default capabilities of a bare ESP8266 board are, how they can be extended and what specialized sensors it can support.

You may also refer to the API documentation to learn how to fully operate and receive all available information from the unicontrol remotely using HTTP interface, or how to send basic commands and obtain basic telemetry using MQTT protocol.

You will find several tips and advice how to keep your devices and communication with them secure and use your IoT network without exposing them to inadequate risks.

To begin your journey with unicontrol, make your first step by downloading it.
