The SLIP protocol consists of commands with binary arguments sent from the +HTTP REST requests as well as an MQTT client. The SLIP protocol consists of commands with +binary arguments sent from the attached microcontroller to the esp8266, which then performs the command and responds back. The responses back use a callback address in the attached microcontroller code, i.e., the command sent by the uC contains a callback address and the response from the esp8266 starts with that callback address. This enables asynchronous communication where esp-link can notify the uC when requests complete or when other actions happen, such as wifi connectivity status changes. -Support for MQTT is forthcoming. You can find a demo sketch in a fork of the espduino library at https://github.com/tve/espduino in the [examples/demo folder](https://github.com/tve/espduino/tree/master/espduino/examples/demo). +More docs forthcoming... + Contact ------- If you find problems with esp-link, please create a github issue.
