How to send message directly to another ESP8266 (without router))

Post by Xalil » Thu May 27, 2021 2:34 pm

Hello.
I am newbie in microcontroller programming. I have a few ESP8266 and I want to create network between them. I want to send a message (for example data from temperature sensor) from one ESP8266 to another without internet (router). Of course one of them will be in soft AP mode and the others are in station mode. How to achieve this type of communication? Can someone advice a piece of program or which library to use? Thank you in advance and sorry for long message.
