The past couple of weeks, I've been working with an ESP32 chip. I'm making experiments at this moment: my goal is to find out if these chips are good enough
now. Many years ago I started with ESP8266 chips and they were clearly not: they were so resource-limited that they could not do TLS (and by extension, HTTPS).
Any interesting use-case requires a server reachable over the internet, the lack of secure communication disqualified that chip.
