Getting started with a microcontroller and Google Cloud IoT Core

on YouTube ↗44m

" summary

Shows how to connect an ESP32 microcontroller with a BME280 sensor to Google Cloud IoT Core: code reads temperature and humidity, packages JSON, and publishes every few seconds via MQTT or HTTP. Uses JWT authentication created with OpenSSL (RSA or EC keys), details the exact libraries, upload/flash commands, and demonstrates a pipeline that stores messages in Firestore plus a PCB and 3D‑printed enclosure.
