Introduction To Blynk

Blynk is a platform to control Arduino, Raspberry Pi and the like via the Internet. It includes Blynk Edgent software that runs on supported hardware, allowing WiFi provisioning and data transfer to the Blynk cloud. The Blynk Console is used to configure devices and apps, and mobile apps can control widgets that interact with hardware. This document demonstrates a simple project using Blynk to control an ESP32's onboard LED via a mobile app button widget.
