WebSerial is a Serial Monitor for ESP8266 & ESP32 Microcontrollers that can be accessed remotely via a web browser. Webpage is stored in program memory of the microcontroller.
Checkout the Pro version of the WebSerial library which comes with enhanced & snappy UI, along with 'clear' & 'lock scroll' buttons on the monitor interface. Best of all, it's only 10KB in size compared to 50KB of regular WebSerial.
Available Here:
- Works on Websockets
- Realtime logging
- Any number of Serial Monitors can be opened on the browser
- Uses Async Webserver for better performance
- ESP8266 Arduino Core - (latest)
- ESPAsyncTCP - v1.2.2
- ESPAsyncWebServer - v1.2.3
- ESP32 Arduino Core - (latest)
- AsyncTCP - v1.1.1
- ESPAsyncWebServer - v1.2.3

WebSerial is very similar to the default Serial Monitor Library of Arduino.

WebSerial has 2 main functions:
printprintln
print - simply prints the data sent over WebSerial without any newline character.
println - prints the data sent over WebSerial with a newline character.
Both functions support the following datatypes: String, const char, char, int, uint8_t, uint16_t, uint32_t, double, float.
To Access Webserial: Go to <IP Address>/webserial in your browser ( where <IP Address> is the IP of your ESP).
Every Contribution to this repository is highly appriciated! Don't fear to create pull requests which enhance or fix the library as ultimatly you are going to help everybody.
If you want to donate to the author then you can buy me a coffee, It really helps me keep these libraries updated:
