@BerndSchmitt-Martinique

You are an extremely capable teacher. It's a pleasure to be your student, even as a retired seventy years old German engineer. Thank you Bill.

@robertorusso6899

this is a real academic lesson on ESP32 you deserve a Standing Ovation from us all

@rayleiter1888

This guy is quite possibly the best presenter on the entire internet! It is very rare to find someone who speaks well in terms of volume and cadence, and of course, clarity.

@georgem4713

A couple of notes for the complete beginners: 
1)The Hall effect sensor will not work at all if the Baud rate is the default value. You must change the Baud rate to 9600. 
Values may get as low as -300 or as high as +350. No magnet values are between (30,60) for my board at least.

2) Not all ESP32 modules have an onboard LED (for the blink sketch), mine does not have one and was driving me mad when in fact it was working as it should. So check the serial for the "Hello World".


3) Do not get frustrated if your exact board does not show in the Board Manager. Instead try the "ESP32 Dev Module"

PS. Great video, helped me a lot. Thanks

Bill, I just wanted to say that you are without a doubt one of the best instructors I have ever watched, or had, in my 63 years. Your method of explanation and your awesome use of diagrams is truly unmatched on YouTube when it comes to electronics (or anything for that matter). I am old school electronics trained and you have rekindled my desire to learn about the updated technology. Thank you again.

@Lise_lee

He is the best teacher in YouTube. He has tables and application scenarios. I am also a technician. You have revived my study of related technologies and I appreciate your teachings very much.

@warrenking1815

My head hurts, you are a great teacher. I was a hardware engineer  for 40 years until I retired. I never had many occasions to work with software . I can write in c+ since I started with ardunio and had to learn. When you start talking about using wifi and Bluetooth I could understand some of the actions but soon fell down the rabbit hole.
Now I must find a good article on both to make the connection between the soft ware and hardware. Just to let you know( you are a great teacher, very concise and thorough)

@mmgc84

Thanks for sharing ❤ ❤

@contepol963

I entered the land of toys. I realize that there are people who use this prodigy for very important things and it fills my heart. You are fantastic and enlightening. I'm learning to understand the language better too. You have a smooth flowing cadence without smudging and it doesn't bore the listener. Again, you are enlightening. A hug with affection.

@johnburgess2084

I'm only 10 minutes into  this video, but I have to say that I love your presentation style!  Clear delivery, speaking clearly and at a pace that's easy to follow.  I'm just getting started with the ESP32 and watching/doing all I can.

@owenthomas7728

Bill, thank you so much! I have been chugging through your videos and it is clear to me and clear to anyone who stumbles upon your content that you are not only a master at robotics and electronics BUT, you are also a master educator! You understand the mind of a novice, and that is one of the most important things when teaching, so many educators, unfortunately, overlook this crucial aspect when trying to convey complex concepts. You have single-handedly propelled my robotics knowledge unlike no other, thank you again for your hard work and commitment to spreading this valuable knowledge!

@TheSamwongms

By closely following the procedures, I was able to complete all the projects without much difficulty. I didn't even need a shorter USB cable for those wifi projects. A big thank you to your hard work for making the video.

@guilloip

YES!!!! Blinking Led working.  I have had to install python-serial and worked properly.  I didnt know which ESP32 board choose.  So I saw mine said "NODE" somewhere and chosed the "NODES32".  You never talk about that.  Thank you very much, I love you channel. You remmember me my electronics teachers.  Thanks again from Argentina.

@drinkOO

I just want to say this to you man... you are awsome!!!

@P.A.T.

I knew 90% of the information but the way you talk is extraordinary so I stayed just to listen to you. One of the best HW presentations on YouTube. You got another subscriber.

@fayfeld5900

Exemplary video - like always. Precise information, presented on a level, that you were neither bored nor overstrained. Well done, Bill!

@SVSunnyJim

5 months later and I've nailed it. You are indeed the only electronics tutor I'll ever need. Amazing resources you provide, great skill, bravo..

@Kai-Made

I am absolutely happy that you have done a very thorough break down of the esp32.  I am working in iot and recently started working with a variety of esp32 containing MCs and this has been very helpful, and is a great way to digest information while I am actually doing work.  I know I could read all the datasheets but I find that I retain information better when someone explains it compared to just reading.

Thanks man.

@stevedonkers9087

I love my ESP32's. I have a severely autistic son that can't be outside by himself (he's been brought home in a squad car a few times -- he's 10 but has no danger sense) and I've had to install a magnetic lock on our front door (he can just unlatch or unlock normal locks and latches). That lock came with some garage door opener buttons that would allow us to unlock the door, but I thought it would be good to have a cell phone app that could do it, so I built a circuit with an ESP32 that controls a relay that will unlock the door, and it's accessible through both bluetooth and wireless, so I can unlock the door from my desktop or phone.

@jsnork3994

You are such a good teacher! Thank you for this great tutorial.
I am a 67 year old senior. My last programming is about 40 years ago. Now I am looking for solving a water supply (quality) problem in Thailand.I found that the ESP32 with a couple of sensors might help to stop public water going into our tanks as soon as its turbidity exceeds a certain threshold.
Actually this idea is just nothing without your help. Thanks. (And thanks for not having an enoying background grove, as this may be horrible for some elderly people...)
 Best wishes to... USA, I guess? Juergen
