Introduction

Joke-Machine is a small-scale embedded system project that brings entertainment to your ESP32-based devices. By leveraging the Wokwi simulator and integrating API calls, this project fetches jokes and prints them on your connected device.

Components

  • ESP32: The project is built on the ESP32 microcontroller, providing the necessary hardware foundation.
  • Wokwi Simulator: Wokwi is used as a simulation environment, allowing you to test and visualize the project’s functionality.
  • API-Based Joke Machine: The project relies on an external API to fetch jokes and deliver them to the ESP32 for display.

Getting Started

To set up the Joke-Machine project, follow these steps:

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/your-username/Joke-Machine.git
    
  2. Open the project in your preferred development environment.

  3. Install any necessary dependencies or libraries.

  4. Connect your ESP32 board to your development environment.

Usage

Once the setup is complete, upload the project to your ESP32 device. The Joke-Machine will then connect to the specified API, fetch a joke, and display it on the device. Enjoy the laughter!
