Hello, thank you for making this. I'm finding it helpful, but my ESP-12 is running into memory errors. Is there any way for me to just type in the SSID rather than select from a list? That would make it so my ESP doesn't run out of ram. Also the webpage is displaying perfectly on my laptop browser, but as html code on my cell phone browser. Any ideas what that's about?

Hi, I haven't seen that behavior here. What kind of cellphone and browser are you using? I am finding that everything works with an Android phone and the Chrome browser.

Glad this repository is helpful for you, but for myself I have moved to a different solution for serving web pages with the ESP32. Much simpler, you can just write and have served up ordinary html files. No need to bother with reading and writing bytes from a socket, all of that is handled.
