Flutter ESP8266 IoT Starter Kit is a starter project for freelancers, indie developers, and hobbyists. This project includes source code for a simple Flutter application which can target Android, iOS as well as other platforms which are supported by Flutter, and a robust C++ based firmware for Arduino/ESP8266 devices. The firmware can be adopted on many Arduino boards as well as ESP32 with minor Pin-level changes.
The aim of this project is to enable the developers to quickly launch their IoT project with custom branded apps for themselves or their customers. The codebase for the app and firmware can be used as a starting point (A starter Template) for your own project, as you can add more functionality to the main app and the device without having to worry about core features like App Settings, Multilingual Support, light and dark themes, and MQTT Communication.
Same is true for the ESP firmware, the firmware is a time-tested codebase, which we have used in our own commercial-grade projects for years, and this can be used as a base project for adding functionality without tangling yourself in features like Easy Wi-Fi Onboarding, Device Settings, Retry-to-Connect logic as well as MQTT Communications.
The app and the firmware by default use a public MQTT broker (as a demo) without any authentication to send commands to the device and receive command responses and data. The MQTT broker settings and credentials can easily be updated in the app as well as the ESP device without having to compile the app or the firmware.

Extended Licence Guideline
As per Envato rules, you must purchase this app under and EXTENDED LICENCE in either one of the following case:
- You plan to publish your own version of this template as a PAID app on the App store or Google Store
- You Plan to add In-App purchase to your own version of this app – which means your user will still get charged of money even if your app is available for free on the App/Play Store.
- You plan to sell the LIVE version of you app Envato, or similar market-places. Please Note that you are not allowed to resell the original source code you bought here on Envato. what mentioned above is only the LIVE app on the App/Play Store.
