Exercise 2: picoweb

Download picoweb and its example programms from gitthub: https://github.com/pfalcon/picoweb.

You can find several tutorials on picoweb on the Internet:

You may neglect the chapters on picoweb installation because the MicroPython firmware already contains a copy of picoweb:

For more information on the use of picoweb you will have to study the examples distributed with the github repository or picoweb itself. The examples demonstrate most of picoweb's features.

Re-write the example from exercise 1 using the picoweb framework. Now the HTML page is separated from the code and must be stored in a separate file. Upload this file to the ESP32 into a folder named html. Create the folder if it does not exist yet. You may also compress the HTML file with gzip and transfer the compressed file to the browser thus limiting the size of the message that must be sent.

Exercise 3: Provide Measurement Data on the WEB Page

Modify the WEB server to provide temperature and humidity measured with the SHT30. The easiest way to accomplish this is static text like in the Hello World HTML page into which the measurements can be inserted. This can be done with utemplates, which are provided by picoweb. Have a look in the utemplates README.MD and in the examples directory of picoweb to understand how this is implemented.

This is how your WEB site for SHT30 measurements might look like (screen dump of the solution script):

Exercise 4: Ajax

The above exercise has a major flaw: For each measurement you must reload the entire page. It would be much nicer it the WEB page could be updated whenever a new is requested.
