consider using WifiManager instead of WPS/manual wifi entry #38

https://github.com/tzapu/WiFiManager/ works quite well for wifi configuration on esp32 (+esp8266) -- it puts the device into AP mode initially and lets the user connect to it to set up wifi. This could be a nicer option than either WPS or manual wifi entry as a prebuilt binary would then work for all users?

I think that's a great idea. We accept Pull Requests. ;-)

Slightly less snarky answer: This code is mostly idle right now. The "owners" (such as we are) have working code for our situation. We aren't doing on-going maintenance or feature adds. If there's a feature you'd like added, you're welcome to implement it yourself. And if you do, I encourage you to submit that change to the main branch of code. But the reality is, we aren't likely to implement this any time soon.

Or, put more succinctly: We accept Pull Requests. :-)

Oh totally understood, that wasn't snarky at all :) I may get around to it, I'll add it to my ever-increasing project list. What's there also works for me now (thanks!) so priority certainly isn't very high.
