# An Internet-enabled DIY MMO "Tamagotchi"
This is an example of the [Wifigotchi](http://wifigotchi.com) running on the JavaScript runtime [Espruino](http://espruino.com) on an ESP8266 based board, the [Adafruit Feather HUZZAH](https://www.adafruit.com/products/2821).
## Bill of Materials
* [Adafruit Feather HUZZAH](https://www.adafruit.com/products/282)1 or any ESP12 based ESP8266 boards
* [8x8 LED Matrix](https://www.adafruit.com/products/1857) Any color, as long as it has the
* [Breadboard](https://www.adafruit.com/products/64)
* [Breadboarding wire](https://www.adafruit.com/products/153)
## Software
* [Flasher.js](http://forefront.io/a/introducing-flasher-js/) (To installer/flash Espruino on your ESP8266 board)
* Node.js / npm
## Wiring
## Run the Code!
Make sure you've flashed the Espruino runtime using the one-click flasher utility, [Flasher.js](http://forefront.io/a/introducing-flasher-js/). You only need to do this once.
Clone or download the project.
```
$ git clone https://github.com/thingsSDK/wifigotchi-example.git
```
Install the dependancies.
```
$ npm install
```
Modify `devices.json` with your COM/serial port. Replace `COM7` to your port.
Rename `credentials.example.json` to `credentials.json` and modify with your wifi connectivity settings.
```javascript
{
"SSID": "PASSWORD",
"ANOTHER_SSID": "THAT_OTHER_PASSWORD"
}
```
For example, if your home wifi network was `NETGEAR52` and your password was `LetMeIn` change the code to this.
```javascript
{
"NETGEAR52": "LetMeIn"
}
```
If you wanted your device to connect to your work network `WORK` aswell, you can add another entry to the credentials.
```javascript
{
"NETGEAR52": "LetMeIn",
"WORK": "dadada"
}
```
When you're done run the push command to deploy it to your device.
```
$ npm run push
```
Then visit [http://wifigotchi.com](http://wifigotchi.com) and click a face and watch your internet enabled Wifigotchi change it's face!
