 # CrustCraft
 
+This project aims to replace the existing thermostat of a G3 Ferrari Pizza Oven with an ESP‑chip based control system, thereby improving precision, responsiveness, and overall temperature regulation.
+
+Happy baking! 🍕🛠️
+
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+| **Item**                      | **Description**                   |
+|-------                        |-------                            |
+| ESP‑32 Dev Board	            | Any WiFi‑enabled chip with at least 4 GPIO pins will do                      |
+| MAX6675 K‑Type Thermocouple   | Only a K‑type thermocouple can withstand the temperatures required  |
+| 5V Relay Module               | Atleast 10A                       |
+| Power Supply	                | 5V / 2A AC-DC adapter             |
+| Connecting Wires	            | Silicone heat resistant wiring    |
+
+
+## Clone the Repository
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/vincvdwal/crust-craft/
+cd crust-craft
+```
+The repo contains the following layout:
+
+## Installing PlatformIO
+
+### VS Code Extension
+
+Open VS Code.
+
+Go to Extensions → Search for “PlatformIO IDE” → Install.
+Restart VS Code → PlatformIO panel appears on the left.
+
+## Project Configuration
+
+Open the project:
+
+Platform	Command
+VS Code	Double‑click `crust-craft` folder or open > File → Add Folder to Workspace.
+
+Edit platformio.ini (shown below – you can adjust as needed):
+
+
+```ini
+[env:esp32dev]
+platform = espressif32
+board = esp32dev
+framework = arduino
+
+; Optional environment for ESP8266
+[env:esp8266]
+platform = espressif8266
+board = nodemcuv2
+framework = arduino
+```
+
+## Building the Firmware
+
+Click the “Build” icon (checkboard) in VS Code’s PlatformIO toolbar.
+The output will be displayed in the Build Log pane.
+Success → you’ll see: Build Done and an `firmware.bin` file under `.pio/build`.
+
+## Uploading to the ESP via VS Code
+
+Press “Upload” (right‑hand arrow icon) in the PlatformIO bar
+→ It will compile (again if necessary) and flash to the device.
+
+## Serial Monitor
+
+Click the “Monitor” icon (plug + arrow) or `Ctrl+Alt+M`
+ 
+## Custom Configuration – Wi‑Fi Credentials
+
+The firmware stores your Wi‑Fi SSID & password in `secrets.h`.
+
+Copy the example or create a new file
+
+```bash
+cp src/secrets.example.h src/secrets.h
+```
+
+And replace the following with your Wi-Fi credentials
+
+```
+// Replace with your network credentials
+const char *ssid = "WIFI_SSID";
+const char *password = "WIFI_PWD";
+```
