Hi,

Thank you for your tutorial. It is very well written and really gives a good overview. I would like to recommend one item to be added, and that is how to code a WebSocket client on the ESP8266 to a server. WIth NAT and firewall, it is usually not easy to configure the ESP8266 to be a server, but easy for it to be a client and connect to a server. So even if we are trying to send commands to the ESP8266, it would be easier for the ESP8266 to connect to a server with WebSocket, and receive commands. Do you think you can add this to your tutorial?

Thanks, James
