Esp-now I/o Point To Point
Today we will discover a hidden feature to connect two or more ESP32s or ESP8266s directly to each other: ESP-now. It is much faster and more energy efficient. And we will compare it to LoRa (RFM95 and Arduino Pro Mini.Espressif gave us this possibility and, because it is so fast, they called it ESPnow.

Thanks, that's a great video. The dude is amazing. Actually, I was clicking through that fellow's channel when I saw that video a few days ago, and that's how I even found out ESP-now was possible. However, I didn't realize that he had linked so many resources in the description. Thanks for pointing it out!I did have a look through the code, already, and I still don't know if one board can do both send and receive, mainly because of these lines, which I think refer to espressif functions:espnowsetselfrole(ESPNOWROLECONTROLLER);espnowaddpeer(remoteMac, ESPNOWROLESLAVE, WIFICHANNEL, NULL, 0);Those make me think that if the device has its role set to controller, it won't be listening to receive data. Andreas focuses more in his video on things like power consumption and range rather than functionality.
