Stop hardcoding your WiFi credentials! In this video, I show you how to build a professional-grade WiFi Configuration Portal for the ESP32 completely from scratch—without using the WiFiManager library.

We will build a custom C++ class to handle the Web Server, create a stunning Glassmorphism UI using HTML/CSS, and implement advanced features like AJAX scanning and live connection verification.

** What you will build **
1. Zero External Libraries: Lightweight and fully customizable code.
2. Connection Verification: The ESP32 attempts to connect before saving credentials to ensure they are correct.
3. Professional UI: Custom HTML/CSS styling that looks great on mobile.
4. Non-Blocking: Uses background scanning so you don't need to reload the page.
5. EEPROM/Preferences: Saves data permanently using the Preferences library.

** Hardware Used **
ESP32 Development Board

2. Push Button (for manual reset)
