WiFi Provisioning

On first boot (or after a settings reset), the ESP32 enters setup mode:

  1. Creates a temporary WiFi network: Homatic-Setup-XXXX
  2. Hosts a captive setup portal at 192.168.4.1
  3. You enter home WiFi and MQTT credentials
  4. Settings are saved to NVS and the device joins your home network

Fields you will enter

FieldExample
WiFi SSIDHome_WiFi
WiFi Password********
MQTT Hostmqtt.homatic.io
MQTT Port1883
Device Namesala (matches esp32_name in dashboard)
