Microcontrollers such as the ESP32 and Raspberry Pi Pico W have an inbuilt WiFi interface. This brings a very powerful communications system to your projects. Your code now has access to the full Internet and other devices can now interact with your project over the wireless signal.

In this tutorial I'll show you how to connect to WiFi using Micropython on a Raspberry Pi Pico. We'll pull data from a web based API and then build a web page interface to allow use to control our microcontroller project and pull data from it.
