WifiEspNow is an Arduino library for ESP-NOW, a connectionless WiFi communication protocol defined by Espressif. Refer to ESP-NOW reference for more information about how ESP-NOW works and its limitations.
WifiEspNow
is a simple wrapper of ESP-NOW functions in ESP-IDF.
On ESP8266, it supports unicast only.
On ESP32, it supports both unicast and multicast.
WifiEspNowBroadcast
implements pseudo broadcast over ESP-NOW.
Each device advertises a specific WiFi SSID, and discovers each other through BSSID scanning.
Then, messages are transmitted separately toward every peer via ESP-NOW unicast.
This is my custom protocol, which differs from WifiEspNow
multicast.
