🚀 Installation

1. Hardware Setup

1. Connect all components as per the pin configuration
2. For LDR: Connect one end to 3.3V, other end to D2 with 10K pull-down resistor
3. For DHT11: Connect VCC to 3.3V, GND to GND, DATA to D1
4. For Relays: Connect IN pins to D5/D6, VCC to 5V, GND to GND

2. Software Setup

1. Install Arduino IDE
2. Add ESP8266 board support:
   • File → Preferences → Additional Boards Manager URLs:
