 # ESP8266_swiss_army_board
 
-Arduino based project running on my custom made board
+I created this platform based on the cheap esp8266 as a development tool in order to write connected embedded applications in C/C++.  
+My goal is to try to create stable and optimized modules and services from scratch like web servers, ftp servers, schedulers and others for fun as well as for a training purpose.  
+This project is still under development (when I have time).  
+Feel free to reuse parts or the whole code if you want.
