ESP8266 Arduino Node MCU Web Interface #1

This is a great bit of software I have tried a few Modbus examples on the Arduino but this appears to be the best. I have started using the ESP8266 modules with built in Wifi and wondered if someone with more skills than me could do a version that would compile on the board. This chap John Lassen http://www.john-lassen.de/index.php/projects/esp-8266-arduino-ide-webconfig has done an amazing web based web config for the ESP8266 network setup combine this with MUDBUS and you would have some really useful Modbus IOT devices.

A great idea. I'm not sure if the Ethernet lib in Arduino works with the ESP8266. If it does then it should be just to recompile and run but I guess there is more to do before that happens like smacking in a layer that simulates the Ethernet lib in the ESP8266 or changing the call to it everywhere to fit whatever the ESP8266 needs.
Right now I'm a little too busy so anyone who is interested. please fork this project and go ahead.

I have started using these boards

OTA WeMos D1 CH340 WiFi Development Board ESP-12E ESP8266 For Arduino IDE UNO R3

You can plug this relay board shield in and I can confirm it works with the WeMos

If you using the relay board with the standard ethernet shield i bent over pin 4 I think because it conflicts with the ethernet library.
