ESP8266 Temperature Display

In this article, I’ll explain how to make a temperature sensor and display, using an ESP8266 board, a DS18B20 temperature sensor and an I2C LCD display.

The WiFi capabilities of the ESP8266 are not required in this project, but I intent to send the temperature values to an MQTT instance in a future version.
