  I was wondering if the esp8266 has to be started on the web IDE or can I save the program on the esp and on plug in it will run the program? Probably a dumb question.. Hopefully someone can explain?

  I want it to periodically send data to my server... I feel so lost... Okay, so I am running an express server on my computer localhost:3000... I cant figure out how to fetch the data off the esp8266 or like you said, have the esp8266 send the data to my server... I know it is probably so simple to do but I cant put 2 and 2 together for some reason.. I was using a third party library Axios to try to make a call to the esp but can't get that to work. .. Am I on the right path at least? Thanks

• Can someone just help me understand!

  const wifi = require("Wifi");
  
  const ssid = "";
  const password = "";
  
  
  wifi.connect(ssid, {password:password}, function(e) {
    if (e) {
      console.log('error during connect:',e);
      wifi.disconnect();
    } else {
      console.log('connected to',ssid);
      require("Wifi").getIP((err, ipinfo) => {console.log(ipinfo)});
      wifi.stopAP();
      //wifi.save();
    }
  });
  
  
  
  const sensor = require("HC-SR04").connect(NodeMCU.D1,NodeMCU.D2,function(dist) {
        const inches = dist * 0.393701;
        n = inches.toFixed(2);
        console.log(n);
  
       
  setInterval(function() {
          sensor.trigger(); // send pulse
  }, 10000);
  
  
  function postMe() {
    content = "Hello";
    var options = {
      host: 'whatdoIputhereifIamrunningalocalserverwithexpress',
      port: '80',
      path:'/',
      method:'POST',
      headers: {
        "Content-Type":"application/json",
        "Content-Length":content.length
      }
    };
    require("http").request(options, function(res)  {
      // ...
    }).end(content);
  }
  

  This is pretty much as far As I've gotten with my code.. I tried to do a test post with no luck so far

  Aww okay, yes so i would want it to periodically send data to my server... I feel so lost... Okay, so I am running an express server on my computer localhost:3000... I cant figure out how to fetch the data off the esp8266 or like you said, have the esp8266 send the data to my server...
